Internationally Recognized Dutch Designs
Students from the Faculty of Aerospace Engineering have been actively competing in International design competitions organised by the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics (AIAA). This year, two teams, one undergraduate and the other graduate, each took a second place.
