Programme description

The B. Tech (Aerospace Engineering) course at Amity University Dubai gives students a sound understanding of the design, construction, and study of the science behind the forces and physical properties of aircraft, Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (drones) rockets and flying crafts. With access to one of the most advanced high-tech Aerospace labs equipped with a turbo jet engine, Armfield c15-10 wind tunnel and fully functional scaled models of aircraft reciprocating engines our students gain first-hand experience of what they can expect in their careers

Our various labs provide students with great insight into the field of Aerospace Engineering by giving them first-hand experience of what they can expect in their future careers.

The Propulsion Lab allows the R&D for Gas Turbine Engine through the high end Mini Gas Turbine equipment.

In the lab you’ll find:

Various piston engine models and gas turbine models
Impulse and reaction turbine benches

The Aerodynamics Laboratory features:

A vortex apparatus
A 2.20 m long wind tunnel capable of producing air velocities between 1 and 35 m/s
Two-component dynamometer with digital force display
Velocity meter
Smoke generator
X-y traversing boundary layer
Pitot-static tube probes A 10 port pressure transducer
A/D readout meter display with signal conditioners
A calibration set

The Vibration Laboratory includes:

The Universal Vibration Apparatus
Slipping Friction Apparatus
Whirling of Shaft apparatus
Vibro-Viscometer

The labs include a polariscope, which demonstrates the effects of stress in photoelastic material.

How does this benefit the students?

These instruments provide students with insight into the phenomenon of resonance, influence of damping and phase relationships. The aircraft structure lab features Advanced Beam Testing Apparatus which helps students understand the behaviour of beams and bars used in aircraft with various loading and end conditions.

Career opportunities

Aerospace Engineers are employed in the aircraft industry - including companies that make engines, communications systems, electronic devices, and parts used in aircraft construction. Government agencies, such as the Department of Defence or the Government Space Research Departments (like NASA) of various countries, also hire professionals from this field

What will students learn?

Students will be learn how to communicate effectively and demonstrate knowledge and a sound understanding of Aerospace Engineering.

Students will be able to apply the fundamental concepts of Science and Engineering knowledge to analyse, formulate and solve complex engineering scenarios.

As students continue on their course, they will learn how to assess societal, health, safety, legal, cultural and environmental issues and relevant engineering responsibilities by applying contextual knowledge to understand its impact towards sustainable development.

Students will discover how to apply modern engineering and IT tools to complex engineering activities with a clear understanding of techniques and limitations.

Students will learn how to conduct themselves professionally and communicate effectively.

Each student will understand what’s needed to have successful careers, both locally and internationally or excel in higher studies.

Students will be able to inculcate awareness about professional ethics and engineering practices.

Students will understand how to engage in independent and lifelong learning of technological changes.

What will students achieve?

Students will learn how to apply and demonstrate knowledge of mathematics, science, and engineering. Knowledge of key topics in aeronautical engineering, includes aerodynamics, automatic flight control, aeroelasticity, flight dynamics, aerospace management systems, performance, aircraft design and maintenance, finite element analysis, fluid dynamics, principles of helicopter engineering, aerospace materials, structures, propulsion, flight mechanics, and stability and control.

All students will learn how to sketch, formulate, design and conduct experiments, as well as be able to predict, calculate, analyse and evaluate results. Students in this course will learn how to develop and use modern engineering techniques, skills and computing tools for aerospace and engineering design practices.

Students will be able to define, recognise, examine and design a system, model, component or a process to meet industrial or R&D needs. They’ll also be able to do so while meeting and considering the needs of public health and safety, as well as the cultural, societal, and environmental factors.

Each student will be able to function effectively as an individual, a member or leader in diverse teams, and in multidisciplinary settings.

Students will be able to apply reasoning informed by contextual knowledge to assess societal, health, safety, legal and cultural issues and the consequent responsibilities relevant to the professional engineering practice.

Students will be able to differentiate and understand professional and ethical responsibilities as an engineer.

Each graduate will demonstrate knowledge and an understanding of the Aerospace engineering and management principles and be able to apply these to their own work, as a member and leader in a team, to manage projects and in multidisciplinary environments.

Students will understand and recognise the importance of engaging in independent and life-long learning in the broadest context of technological change.
