THE AMERICAN INSTITUTE OF AERONAUTICS AND ASTRONAUTICS (AIAA)

Prof Segal Activity at HKUST

 

On behalf of the Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering and the Aeronautics Interest Group, we would like to present the activities hosted and led by both HKUST faculty, and Professor Segal.

 

Prof. Segal who has 11 years of aviation industry experience before switching to academic will come to UST to talk about aircraft design for an light and amphibian general aviation aircraft.

This is a very precious chance that a prof with industry experience come to deliver lecture on REAL aircraft design process. I am sure everyone who join will learn a lot.
