Introduction to Aerospace Engineering

Introduction to Aerospace Engineering. Instructor: Prof. Rajkumar Pant, Department of Aerospace Engineering, IIT Bombay. The aim of this course is to provide a general overview of the field of Aeronautical Engineering to interested students. Each Lecture will cover a specific concept or area relevant to the subject. An attempt will be made to cover the contents in an interesting manner, by a judicious use of a mix of powerpoint presentations, in-class activities, quizzes, innovative and hands on assignments that will not only increase the awareness of the students, but also satiate their curiosity and desire to know more about the various concepts related to the subject.
