What our students think of this course:
Anthony Bassey Ekanem
The course is good especially as it tries to give the necessary knowledge to be able to kickstart a career in aerospace engineering. I like the course because it makes for a good foundational course.
Karine Wallin
Excellent introduction and superb explanations
John Carlton
This was an excellent course. The instructor provides practical, concise explanations of the key aerodynamic considerations related to aircraft design, in such a way as to make the material accessible to a broad audience. This was exactly what I was looking for.
Esther Anjo
I'm from Brazil and loved this course by the time, I realized how much I had learned!!
Shawn Kee
Detailed information
Hiển Le
So far it has been amazing, lots and lots of information on aerodynamics and it is quite easy to understand
Zeeshan Ahmed
Audio could be clear
Alan Snell
This is great!!
Chinmaya Chandrashekaraiah
It was really good. I feel some places it can be much better regarding aircraft parts purpose(slats, flaps, Elevons etc) and its explanation like Roll, pitch, yaw axis of rotation.
Justus Kurgat Kibet
Explanation is to the point using the relevant examples
Sparsh Rannaware
The explanation is simple and easy to visualize with the graphic representations in the slides. It's a really compact and to the point course, just what is needed !
Tasha Elizabeth Choolackal
Simple and easy to understand
Taylor Mason
Very informative for an introduction to aircraft engineering. Helped me a lot to get a good basis for my engineering diploma
Rafael Torres
I'm an aircraft enthusiast and enjoy learning about aircraft and it's technology.
Oyebode Olamide Rita
Amazing. Very informative and easy to understand.
Enrico Pascucci
Great course. A lot of valuable information explained in a clear way.
Victor Álvarez Parrilla
Really good course to introduce yourself into the world of aerospace engineering if you have some base.
Luke Anema
Very straightforward and easy to understand for someone with limited knowledge about the subject. Good for people eager to learn more.
Nakul Vyas
Great course very engaging and informative
Bryan Hugo
The speaker, Mr Foreman explain the courses loud and clear
Hariharan Venkatnarayanan
The explanation was really good, in the beginning of the course i had no idea about the basics of aerospace engineering and the components of an aircraft Now i am confident enough to say that i know the working of an aircraft and the aero dynamics. Thank You sir!!
