1. Introduction
The Department of Aerospace Engineering is one of the oldest departments in Inha
University with its Masters and Doctoral programs established in 1976 and 1984,
respectively. The department has been steadily producing experts in the field of aircraft
and satellites, which are identified as key high technology fields by the nation.
In year 2000, the university selected the Department of Aerospace Engineering as a
specialized major and provided substantial support. In 2014, it was selected as one of
the four departments to lead the education in Aerospace technology by the Korean
Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, and Transport.
The department offers chances to study the individual disciplines as well as the system
integration technologies, which are required for the development of complicated
systems such as aircraft and satellites.
After receiving Masters or Doctoral degrees, most of the graduates work for national
research centers such as the Agency for Defense Development (ADD), Korea
Aerospace Research Institute (KARI), or other various R&D centers of large private
companies. In addition, the choice of fields that the graduate students can work is
widening, which includes automobile industries, heavy industries, and heat and fluid
industries.
The department’s alumni have been playing important roles in the nation’s research and
development of the aerospace systems.
