Focus projects

Focus projects

Specially committed students have the opportunity to take part in a focus project in the last year of their studies. Over the course of an academic year, students can prove themselves in the real world of engineering. The self-financed projects are implemented in close cooperation with the industry. This experience offers a tremendous learning curve and forges the extraordinary engineers of tomorrow.

Takeoff e-Sling / Project H2

The first two focus projects dealt with the development of a 4-seat electric aircraft. Since September 2020, 20 students have worked for two years on the layout, construction and design of the e-Sling. With the first flight of the e-Sling on 19 September 2022, we are looking back on a major milestone. With new focus projects, other powertrains will also be researched and tested. For example, Project H2 has been working on the development of a fuel cell system since September 2021. This year, the hydrogen powertrain is to be completed so that it can be integrated into a Lightwing AC4 and we can climb new horizons in sustainable aviation! Join us and follow us on our journey!
