EDUCATION
MASTER IN AEROSPACE ENGINEERING
TECHNICAL UNIVERSITY OF MADRID
Madrid, Spain | October 2005 – October 2014
Name of the diploma in Spanish: “Ingeniero Aeronáutico”
Aeronautical engineering with specialization in space systems. The degree provides a strong background in physics and mathematics, and covers diverse topics like fluid dynamics, electronics, aircraft and helicopter design, wind energy, economics, etc. The specialization focuses on space systems, orbital dynamics, avionics, control, hypersonic aerodynamics, propulsion, among others. Example of some of the projects that I took part of:
* Sun-pointing satellite theoretical design, mission analysis with STK. Team project simulating concurrent design methodology, where I was responsible of the Attitude and Orbit Control System (AOCS);
* Acceptance testing of power, thermal, communications and attitude systems of an educational cubesat;
* Stratospheric probe design and construction, telemetry and sensors programmed with Arduino;
* "Preliminary design of a 20 MW wind turbine" (Master thesis), using a Matlab toolkit and Latex.
