Why did you decide to study Aerospace Engineering?
Aerospace Engineering is a very challenging study programme that combines a variety of engineering fields, which is clearly noticeable from the courses that are offered. You will do a lot of mathematics, physics, chemistry, manufacturing, even some statistics and of course a lot of Aerospace. After one year of studying, I am still very happy with my choice.

What was your favourite course?
I mostly preferred the math intensive courses, such as linear algebra in the first year. Once you have those basics under control, the harder courses, like vibrations, aerodynamics and signals, become a lot easier and fun.
