Leo Veldhuis

In 1979 I started out as a student in the Faculty of Aerospace Engineering. While taking my degree in the Aerodynamics group I worked here for over two years as a student teaching assistant. Immediately following my graduation I was appointed assistant professor of Aerodynamics, later followed by an appointment as associate professor and head of the Wind Tunnel laboratories. Meanwhile, in 2005, I obtained my PhD in Propellers and Propeller-Wing Interaction. I have held my present position as chair of Flight Performance and Propulsion (FPP) since 1 July 2013.
