Course objectives:
Students will analyze and optimyze systems for non-motor aircraft and aircraft with an auxiliary motor, whitch are used for vol libre.
Student responsibilities:
Grading and evaluation of student work over the course of instruction and at a final exam:
-continuous evaluation of work and motivation during classes - evaluation of colloquia and seminars, or exam
Methods of monitoring quality that ensure acquisition of exit competences:
- analysis of nonstructured classes" discussions - analisys seminar's quality levels
Upon successful completion of the course, students will be able to (learning outcomes):
1. Competent use aircraft systems for vol libre. 2. Active and interdisciplinary apply of fundamental features of research and innovation in systems of aircraft for vol libre. 3.
