Short Courses in Mechanical Engineering

Short Course in Automation & Simulation

In this course students will have an introduction to the methods used at the edge of mechanical engineering and computer technology.

Short Course in International Advanced Summer School on Fluid Mechanics and Magnetohydrodynamics

This international school targets at basic research training in Fluid Mechanics and Magnetohydrodynamics for advanced graduate students and PhD students interested in Astrophysics, Plasma Physics as well as Applied Mathematics. The aim is to provide a coherent and rigorous introduction in these fields, including Continuum Thermodynamics, Topological Magnetohydrodynamics and Relativistic Fluid Mechanics.

Short Course in Automotive & Mobility Studies

The automobile is as important today as ever, and with that comes ever more increasing demands, most notably that concerning alternative fuels and the impact of automobiles on the environment.

Short Course in Motorsport Structural Analysis

Cranfield University

This course provides an introduction to the selection, processing design, and analysis of competition vehicles. This course offers a combination of fundamental concept lectures, engineering theories, lab exercises, finite element modelling and simulations, tutorial and peer review exercises

Short Course in European Summer Program (ESP) - Sustainable Energy Management in Community and Industrial Buildings

Université Catholique de Lille

A 4- week academic summer program offering 2 40-hour courses taught in English, focusing on Green and Sustainable Development. A multicultural, integrative and highly academic experience at the heart of Europe, in France's largest private university.

Short Course in Introduction to Spacecraft Operations

Cranfield University

The aim of the course is to give engineers the skills they require to become spacecraft operations engineers for modern satellite missions, gaining critical knowledge and experience in a domain where hands-on training is difficult to obtain.

Short Course in Motorsport Electonics and Data Acquisiton

Cranfield University

The course provides an understanding of electronics and data acquisition systems that are integral to the modern motorsport vehicle. In addition the course provides methodologies for the analysis and interpretation of the data acquired, and suggests how this may be used to optimise car performance.

Short Course in Motorsport Vehicle Dynamics

Cranfield University

To provide delegates with fundamental information on vehicle dynamics focussing on limit behaviour with explanations and derivations from first principles, using simplified physical models. In addition the course provides experience of a computer based dynamics simulation package of industrial standard, and to provide experimental exercises to illustrate major physical concepts.

Short Course in Composite Structures for Motorsport

Cranfield University

Provides a detailed understanding and practical experience of the use of composite materials in racing car structures including materials selection, component design, manufacturing technology processing and performance.

Short Course in Metallic Structures for Motorsport

Cranfield University

This course provides an introduction to the selection, design, and processing of metallic materials used in the construction of competition vehicles. Delegates will gain an understanding of the physical and metallurgical properties of the metals and how these properties affect the selection of metal alloys for a vehicle chassis, suspension, engine, gearbox and wheels.

Short Course in Gas Turbine Design and Performance

Cranfield University

The course aims to present an in depth coverage of all key aspects of gas turbine engine and component design and performance for both design point and off-design conditions.
