The aviation and space industry is the most high-tech industry on our planet. A huge number of modern inventions and technologies used in materials science, radio electronics and radar, mechanical engineering and instrumentation, computer technology and programming, and specialized control systems were created within the walls of aviation design bureaus and enterprises.

The Aerospace Technologies program includes:

• learning about the history of aviation and space exploration;
• analysis of the main aerodynamic layouts of modern aircraft;
• study and analysis of the main advanced technologies used in the creation of manned and unmanned aircraft and helicopters, as well as spacecraft;
• training in manual UAV control using a ground control station and an aircraft simulator; piloting quadcopters and aircraft models;
• development of UAV projects based on specific technical specifications;
• development, design, and manufacturing of UAV structural elements;
• development of spacecraft projects used for exploring outer space, planets, and satellites of the Solar System;
• development of innovative aircraft projects.
