Fundamentals and Principles of Drone Technology-course (1 ECTS) gives you a structured, engineering-oriented introduction to drone technologies and their applications. You’ll move from the early history of unmanned aviation to modern, multi-sensor platforms that can map, inspect and monitor the world around us.
Across the modules you will explore drone types, components and control systems, basic flight planning and navigation, and the European regulatory and safety framework for typical technical use cases. You’ll also see how drone data is turned into useful information in fields such as infrastructure inspection, agriculture and environmental monitoring.
By the end of the course, you’ll be able to look at a potential drone mission and judge both its technical feasibility and how to carry it out safely, legally and responsibly.
