B.Sc. Engineering of Drone Technologies
The Bachelor of Science in Drone Technologies Engineering at Al-Khwarizmi University is one of the first specialized programs in the region dedicated to the engineering, innovation, and application of unmanned aerial systems (UAS). This interdisciplinary degree empowers students to lead in the fast-growing drone and autonomous systems industry — combining aerospace engineering, robotics, AI, and systems design in one comprehensive program.
About the Program
This program applies core principles of science and engineering to the design, analysis, and deployment of aerial and autonomous systems — from concept to real-world testing. Through hands-on lab work, simulation environments, and field projects, students gain critical experience in building the next generation of smart drones and aerial vehicles.
Students will explore two main pathways:
- Aerial Systems Engineering: focusing on drones, UAVs, multirotor and fixed-wing aircraft operating within the Earth’s atmosphere.
- Autonomous Intelligence & Control: centered on AI-driven flight systems, autonomous navigation, obstacle detection, and mission-specific payloads.
