It guarantees university education provided by:

  • in the 1st stage of university education – in bachelor study programs:
    • Aerospace technology (study program Transport)
  • in the 2nd stage of university education – in the engineering study program:
    • Aerospace engineering (study program Transport)
  • in the 3rd stage of university education – in the doctoral study program:
    • Aerospace systems (study program Transport)

It carries out scientific and research activities mainly in the areas of construction of aircraft and aircraft engines, Construction of means of ground security for the operation of aircraft and aircraft engines, Management and execution of works connected with the use of aircraft and aircraft engines, Management and execution of works connected with airport and ground security of the operation of aircraft and aircraft engines.

It deals in more detail with:

  • Design and modeling of molds for plastic parts, preparation of CAD/CAM models using a 3D scanner and modeling using 3D printing.
  • Measurement of aerodynamic forces and moments, aerodynamic and thermodynamic analysis of aircraft, propellers, jet engines, wind turbines and road vehicles using CFD methods.
  • Design and experimental verification of the control algorithm of small jet engines and mathematical modeling of complex systems.
  • Design of aircraft construction and simulation of operation, maintenance, repairs using progressive PLM software technologies. 3D modeling of the human factor using a biomechanical model in augmented and virtual reality.

History of the department

The Department of Aeronautical Engineering (KLI) was established on September 1, 2004 as one of the scientific and pedagogical departments of the Institute of Aeronautics during the merger of the General M.R. Štefánik Military Aviation Academy with the Technical University in Košice. After the end of the transformation process on February 1, 2005, KLI became part of the Faculty of Aeronautics  as one of the supporting departments. Despite several reorganizational changes during its 45-year history, KLI has maintained throughout its existence the main mission of training civil and military aviation specialists, pilots and other aviation personnel in the field of aviation engineering.
