The Summer School at Cranfield University The School of Engineering at Cranfield University in Bedfordshire will host the Schools Aerospace Challenge Summer School. Under the leadership of engineering graduates seconded from industry and RAF personnel, qualifying teams are put through a range of experiences. Classroom work is balanced with practical exercises where students learn to plan strategy, manage resources and achieve an objective. Talks on understanding how both fixed and rotary wing aircraft are designed and operated are complimented by the opportunity to pilot both types.
Students will find the four night stay a unique opportunity to learn more of the engineering side of aerospace and the opportunities it offers.
