Course in Aerospace Engineering

---

The purpose of the course is to give the students general knowledge about a satellite as a complex engineering system consisting of components heavily interacting with each other.
The number of subsystems and their function will be presented: power electronics, onboard computer, mechanical structure, software, ground station, sensors and actuators. The course is so called "free study activity" and its recommended for all students and their supervisors involved in AAU satellite project.
