Doctoral Research - Aerospace
Aerospace Sciences at Cranfield University draw upon a great heritage going back to the original establishment of the College of Aeronautics in 1946. The Aerospace Sciences DTC concerns a wide range of research and technology areas in the field of aeronautics and astronautics, including applications in the civil and defence sectors. The research areas range from advanced computational modelling and simulation to experimental testing using large scale facilities, including: flight testing, large wind tunnels, cabin evacuation, manufacturing and high-performance computing facilities, amongst others.
The DTC covers a broad range of research themes within which the doctoral candidates can be offered a wide variety of projects. A brief description of the topics is listed in the links box on the right of this page.
