Connecting Future Aviation Experts
The EXAELIA Academy is a dynamic initiative designed to connect students, researchers, and young engineers with leading experts in aviation. Within the EXAELIA project, students have the opportunity to work on key topics under the supervision of university professors and with mentoring from EXAELIA partners.
To support collaboration, the Academy offers a suite of collaborative engagements, including webinars, training sessions, and hands-on workshops. These activities create opportunities for direct interaction with researchers and industry professionals, encouraging knowledge exchange and skill development.
A key goal of the Academy is to build a strong network of students, postdocs, and engineers working on validated designs and exploitation plans for large-scale European flying testbed assets. Through this collaborative network, participants are encouraged to share knowledge and skills that align with the evolving demands of the aviation industry.
By participating in the EXAELIA Academy, participants contribute to real-world research while gaining valuable experience in the evolving aerospace sector.
