Key topics and competencies students will acquire and develop during their learning journey.
In this course, you will learn about the principles of flight, aircraft design, and space technology. You will study topics such as aerodynamics, materials science, structural analysis, and control systems, and apply these concepts to the design and optimization of aerospace vehicles and systems.
Learn about the fundamentals of propulsion systems and their application in aerospace engineering. Thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, combustion, and propulsion cycles, and an understanding of the performance, efficiency, and limitations of various types of engines, including rockets, turbo machinery, and air-breathing engines.
Learn about the fundamental laws of physics and their application to engineering problems including topics such as mechanics, thermodynamics, electromagnetism, and optics, and learn how to use models and experimental techniques to analyze and solve problems related to aerospace engineering and propulsion mechanics.
A 4-week roadmap to define each stage of a virtual work-experience program.
Get introduced to the program, your mentors and the company. You will learn how an aerospace company operates and begin preliminary research on the program project.
You will obtain all the required skills to complete the project. Through a series of skills lectures you will get a fully immersive learning experience and all the adequate skills.
You are now equipped with the adequate skillset to complete the program. Applying your knowledge onto the project in the context of aerospace engineering and working as a team is the focus.
In your final week you will submit your project for mentor feedback. In the final night you will pitch your project and findings to Icehouse Ventures representatives and upon completion, receive a referral letter.
Hear from students who joined Delta and gained meaningful, confidence-building experiences.
Get in touch to learn how the Ventures in Space Tech Program gives high school students hands-on aerospace experience — working on real engineering challenges, collaborating in teams, and building a portfolio that stands out.
