Austrian Competences in Aeronautics Technology

University of Applied Sciences Wiener Neustadt - Aerospace Engineering Department

The Aerospace Engineering Department was founded in 2012. Being well connected with the regional air and space as well as local aviation industry, the Department focuses on their present and future needs. Together with the University's own research partner Fotec, the AE Department designs, manufactures and tests new systems.

Technologies and competences

The AE department focuses on the use of modern materials and manufacturing methods for aerospace components. This includes the simulation of manufacturing methods for C-C composite and verification of the models. In addition, together with its R&D company, FOTEC, the AE Department investigates the use of additive layer manufacturing methods for a variety of aerospace applications.
