2. | Brief introduction |
The Aerospace Engineering
programme aims to
help students develop into quality graduates possessing strong
foundations in engineering, firm Islamic values, ethics as well as
management skills. In addition to the fundamental and technical
requirements in Aerospace Engineering it has critical components of
management/entrepreneurship, and Islamic revealed knowledge. The goal
is to make IIUM engineering graduates competent in the design and
analysis of aerospace vehicles, manage technology and conduct their
profession as ethically sound engineers. |

Program Structure |
Your studies commence with the common first year.
Completion of the
common first year will develop your foundational skills for engineering
while you sample from the various branches of engineering. In this year
you will develop your skills and knowledge of fundamental engineering
through completion of practical hands-on design-and-build activities.
At the conclusion of first year, after experiencing the fundamentals of
each discipline, you nominate your branch of engineering for further
study. After specialising in the second year you will develop an in-depth understanding of the knowledge, techniques, tools and resources appropriate for your branch of engineering, as well as skills and knowledge of the application of engineering methods required to conduct, design and manage engineering projects.
