What France AEROTECH Aims to Do

France AEROTECH has several important goals. They want to:

  • Share French knowledge: They offer French courses in other countries. This helps more students learn about aerospace engineering.
  • Work together globally: They create international research projects. This means experts from different countries can work on new ideas together.
  • Develop new courses: They develop new courses in aeronautical and space engineering. This keeps their teaching up-to-date with the latest technology.
  • Help growing countries: They help countries that are developing their own aerospace industries. This can include sharing knowledge and training.

Future Projects

To achieve these goals, the schools in France AEROTECH plan to create new programs. For example, they have worked on:

  • A summer program focused on embedded systems. These are computer systems built into larger devices, like those found in airplanes.
  • A Master's degree program in airworthiness. This is about making sure that aircraft are safe and ready to fly.
