Aerospace Manufacturing Engineering

Aeronautical Engineering is one of the important majors in the College of Aerospace Engineering, which was founded in November, 2003, set up by the merging of the Department of Aircraft Manufacturing Engineering and the Department of Engineering Mechanics, its predecessor, the Department of Aeronautical Engineering formed in 1978. The College of Aerospace Engineering has a first-level Aerospace Science master's degree and three second-level master's degree programs (Aerospace Manufacturing Engineering, Aircraft Design and Engineering Mechanics), it also has engineering master's degree program in Aeronautical Engineering. Among these Aerospace Manufacturing Engineering is a characteristic discipline developed by the national defense science and industry committee and Liaoning Province; it is also the national defense science and industry committee period program with proper priority second-level discipline.

The college of Aerospace Engineering currently has 61 teaching and administrative staffs, of which 8 are professors, 28 are associate professors and 15 have a doctorate degree. There are 1120 undergraduate students, 47 engineering graduate students and 200 students studying a minor at the college. In recent 5 years the collage has undertaken the National Natural Sciences Fund, Aeronautical Science Fund, Liaoning Province Science Fund, the National Defense Advanced Research topic, the National 11 priority projects, SDS unmanned aerial vehicle, some model carrier-borne aircraft and 80 other new machine development topics, research spending have amounted to 15 million Yuan. The college 22 laboratories include Aircraft Design and synthesis lab, fatigue and vibration lab, mold/die lab, forming and fabrication characteristics lab, cold stamping lab, plastic fabrication lab, SPF/DB lab, reverse-engineering lab, airplane board installation and systems lab, aircraft assembly lab, aircraft joining lab, theoretical mechanics lab, materials mechanics; lab and other laboratories and research centers, the college also has Liaoning Province key laboratories - Liaoning Province digital simulation and engineering laboratory.
