You should have foundational knowledge of physics (classical mechanics and thermodynamics), basic calculus and differential equations, familiarity with fluid mechanics, and some programming experience in Python or MATLAB. A formal engineering degree is not required, but STEM coursework or equivalent self-study is strongly recommended.

The curriculum covers rocket propulsion systems (solid, liquid, and hybrid engines), aerodynamics and thermal analysis, structural design of airframes, avionics and guidance systems, orbital mechanics and trajectory analysis, mission planning, and end-to-end rocket development from concept through testing and launch operations.

You should plan for approximately 10-15 hours per week, including lectures, hands-on design and simulation work, project development, and review of supplementary materials. Some weeks involving prototype building and launch preparation may require additional time.

The course features three major hands-on projects: designing a liquid rocket engine, building an autonomous guidance and recovery system, and executing a full hybrid rocket design and launch campaign. You will use simulation tools like OpenRocket, write analysis code in Python and MATLAB, and work with Arduino-based avionics hardware.

This course prepares you for roles such as Aerospace Engineer, Propulsion Systems Specialist, Avionics and Control Systems Engineer, and Rocket Launch Operations Manager. The industry-relevant projects and hands-on experience with real tools provide a portfolio of work that demonstrates practical rocketry skills valued by aerospace employers.

You will work with Python and MATLAB for trajectory analysis and data processing, OpenRocket for rocket flight simulation and design, Arduino for avionics sensor integration and control, and PX4 Autopilot for guidance and navigation system development. These are widely used tools in both amateur and professional rocketry.
