You should have a basic understanding of physics and mechanics, familiarity with Python programming, foundational electronics knowledge, and comfort with Linux command-line operations. No prior drone-building experience is required, as the program covers drone design and development from the ground up.

The curriculum covers drone airframe design, propulsion and power systems, flight controller configuration with PX4 and Pixhawk, sensor integration, autonomous navigation with ROS 2, computer vision using OpenCV and YOLO, simulation in Gazebo, ground control station operations with QGroundControl, telemetry systems, and drone industry regulations and compliance.

The program spans 12 weeks and is designed for a commitment of approximately 12-15 hours per week. This includes video lectures, hands-on labs, simulation exercises, and project work. Flexible scheduling allows you to balance the program alongside other commitments.

The program is highly hands-on. You will design airframes, configure flight controllers, write ROS 2 nodes for autonomous navigation, run Gazebo simulations, build computer vision pipelines, and complete three industry-relevant capstone projects covering agriculture, search and rescue, and infrastructure inspection drones.

Graduates are prepared for roles such as Drone Design Engineer, Autonomous Systems Architect, Drone Software Developer, and Drone Operations Specialist. The program provides a portfolio of real-world projects and proficiency with industry-standard tools that are highly sought after in the rapidly growing commercial drone sector.

You will work extensively with Python, PX4 Autopilot, ROS 2, Gazebo simulator, QGroundControl, OpenCV, YOLO, Pixhawk flight controllers, and Raspberry Pi companion computers. These are the same tools widely used in professional drone development and autonomous systems engineering.
