Program overview
In simple terms, this major is about studying how to safely and accurately send missiles, rockets, and artillery shells into the sky or to a target. You will learn core courses such as launch dynamics, flight mechanics, propulsion technology, and control systems, and also get hands-on with simulations and experiments. China has strong capabilities in this field, with universities like Beijing Institute of Technology and Nanjing University of Science and Technology having specialized labs and wind tunnels where you can operate launch devices and test equipment. It's suitable for students who enjoy physics and math, have a passion for aerospace or military technology, and are willing to do hands-on experiments.
