Departments and Chairs

The faculty of Aerospace Engineering is concentrated in departments in such a way that chairs with related areas of interest are set closely together.

There are 4 departments within the faculty:

Aerodynamics, Wind Energy, Flight Performance and Propulsion (AWEP)

• Aerodynamics
• Wind Energy
• Flight Performance & Propulsion
• Aerospace for Sustainable Science and Technology

Control and Operations (C&O)

• Control and Simulation
• Air Transport and Operations  

Aerospace Materials and Manufacturing (ASM)

• Aerospace Structures & Computational Mechanics
• Novel Aerospace Materials
• Structural Integrity & Composites

Faculty AE has a very advanced structures and materials laboratory:

• Delft Aerospace Structures and Materials Laboratory

Space Engineering (SpE)

• Astrodynamics and Space Missions
• Space Systems Engineering
