This course builds on first and second-year studies in fluid mechanics, aerodynamics and flight mechanics. You will learn advanced concepts of aerodynamics and apply these to aircraft design, including computational methods for the analysis and prediction of airfoils aerodynamics. Other advanced topics such as laminar-turbulent transition and high-speed aerodynamics will also be covered.

Please note that if you take this course for a bachelor honours program, your overall mark in this course will be one of the course marks that will be used to calculate the weighted average mark (WAM) that will determine your award level. This applies to students who commence enrolment in a bachelor honours program from 1 January 2016 onwards. See the WAM information web page for more information.
