Build aerospace-engineering fluency across aerodynamics, flight mechanics, propulsion, structures, thermal systems, guidance/navigation/control, systems engineering, testing, reliability, autonomy and mission design.
BASIC
- Airplane Aerodynamics — MIT OCW (Selected)
Build lift, drag, pressure, angle-of-attack and aerodynamic intuition from a real aerospace lecture. - Aircraft Systems / Flight Controls (video gallery) — MIT OCW (Selected)
Connect aerospace performance to integrated aircraft systems, controls, human factors and mission operations. - Propulsion: Space Shuttle Main Engines — MIT OCW (Selected)
See propulsion as a coupled thermofluid, structures, controls, reliability and systems-engineering problem.
INTERMEDIATE
- Aerodynamics: From Subsonic to Hypersonic and Back — MIT OCW
Extend the aerodynamic mental model across very different flight regimes and tradeoffs. - Aircraft Performance / Weight & Balance (video gallery) — MIT OCW
Translate physics into range, payload, performance, stability and operational constraints. - Aerothermodynamics — MIT OCW
Connect high-speed flight and re-entry to heat transfer, materials and thermal protection.
ADVANCED
- Guidance, Navigation & Control (Aircraft Systems video series) — MIT OCW
Study sensing, estimation, guidance, actuation and closed-loop mission control as an integrated system. - Orbiter Structure + Thermal Protection System — MIT OCW
Explore structural loads, materials, thermal protection, margins and subsystem coupling. - Small UAS Operations / F-22 Flight Controls — MIT OCW
Bridge aerospace foundations into autonomous aircraft, modern control and operational safety.
