Expected prior knowledge Officially registered as Master student Aerospace Engineering
Course Contents The aim of the internship is to expose students to a real professional work environment outside the TU Delft for a period of at
least 12 consecutive weeks on a full-time basis at a company/research institute or at another university. The internship provides
the opportunity to get a glance of the technical, social, economic and organizational aspects of Aerospace Engineering and/or
related fields as a profession. It enables students to acquire professional skills different from those taught in the MSc programme.
During the internship the student is able to apply the academic skills and knowledge acquired during their BSc and the MSc
courses they have already followed. The student should aim for a project or tasks with clear deliverables of a sufficient academic
master level.
Please refer to Brightspace AE5050.
Study Goals Learning objectives are:
1. Demonstrate engineering skills: technical skills, interpreting results, creativity, usability for company/institute;
2. Familiarise with academic approach: experimental work/computer skills/design skills, extending knowledge/methods,
argumentation, ambition;
3. Show ability to write a technical report: which is structured/consistent, language proficient, with correct use of
literature/references, use of figures/tables/equations, and has a concise format (30 pages);
4. Demonstrate behavioural competences and skills: taking initiative, responsibility, showing communication skills,
independency, collaboration and the ability to adapt to different cultures, a thorough self-reflection is given in the reflection
chapter of the report;
5. Being able to reflect on personal functioning in an evaluation report: reflect on personal objectives, indicate personal
strengths/weaknesses. Indicate future personal improvement, drawing conclusions for future career.
Please refer to Brightspace AE5050.
Education Method Please refer to Brightspace AE5050.
Assessment Please refer to Brightspace AE5050.
Remarks An internship can be performed any time during the academic year. Finding a suitable internship is an important part of the
course. Students should make sure to start organising their internship well in time, preferably around 9 months before the
planned date of departure. Please refer to Brightspace AE5050.

Study Goals Learning objectives MSc Thesis
During the MSc thesis the student will show their knowledge, understanding and skills at an academic Masters level with respect
to independently planning and executing a research or design project.
On completing the Graduation Project, the student should be able to:
Demonstrate that they are capable to independently apply relevant theory and/or knowledge to research and/or design;
Formulate a theoretical and/or experimental framework and delineate a research and/or design problem such that it can be
solved;
Interpret obtained results in a critical manner;
To produce results with scientific/technological relevance that can be published in scientific literature;
Critically reflect on the work performed at the level of their peers in their particular field;
Present the work performed in a well-structured report or a draft scientific paper that incorporates verification of methods and
tools and is written in correct English;
Present work performed in a structured way through an oral presentation to their peers and wider audience;
Defend their work in presence of their peers where the work is placed into scientific context and explain the contribution to the
field;
Plan the project efficiently considering resources and methodology;
Execute the project controlling the process, effectively using the plan.
Assessment The assessment of the Master thesis will be done on the basis of the final objectives of the MSc curriculum. The faculty has
introduced a new schematic using a rubrics for this.
