Learning outcomes

Upon a successful completion of the study specialization in Weapon Systems, students will be able to design and develop classical and rocket weapon systems by applying advanced engineering principles and innovative solutions. They will acquire the ability to model, analyse, design, and test critical components of weapon systems, ensuring functionality, reliability, and performance under specified conditions. Graduates will be equipped to identify, analyse, and solve complex engineering problems related to weapon systems through systematic and evidence-based approaches. With advanced technical knowledge and skills, graduates will excel in the defence industry and research and development institutions, driving innovation and contributing to technological advancements. Furthermore, they will exhibit a strong commitment to professional ethics and values, incorporating normative and applied ethics into their engineering practices.
