Faculty of Aerospace Engineering

University POLITEHNICA of Bucharest

The Romanian contribution to pioneering in Aviation is substantial and has a worldwide recognition. Names such as Traian Vuia (first complete flight with onboard means, 1906), Henri Coanda (first jet engine used for propulsion in Aviation, 1990) and Aurel Vlaicu (an original and inventive high performance airplane, 1910) are well known to the aviation world.

In Romania, the higher education in aviation started in 1928, when Prof. Elie Carafoli opened the first course on Aeronautics at the Polytechnic school in Bucharest. He also built the first wind tunnel in South-Eastern Europe (1931), still in operation. The specialization of Aviation functioning within the Polytechnic of Bucharest during the period 1933-1971 became the Faculty of Aerospace Engineering in 1971, with 180-200 students each year.
