I just stumbled across two very cool videos while checking in to see what's been happening at CQUniversity. I won't go into too much detail as I think these clips can speak for themselves but I can't remember having this much fun when I was a uni student.
With CQUniversity Engineering now offering a Mechatronics major, it seems an ideal time for some of the more advanced students to focus on related projects - robot legs and a robot hand.
While not exactly requiring an arm and a leg (more like a hand and a leg) to complete the projects, the students did put a lot of work into their creations, with the help of Engineering technical team members Ian Tomlinson, Simon Cumming and Troy Simpson.
Three CQUni Aviation students were also recently tasked with testing a spacecraft module simulator before it was shipped to the Gold Coast to Gillmour Space Technologies.
According to CQUniversity’s Aviation Discipline Leader Ron Bishop, it was an exciting experience for the students.
The students worked with technicians from Gilmour Space Technologies to improve systems and operation of the spacecraft simulator.
CQUniversity offers Aviation programs from Diploma through to Bachelor level out of its Bundaberg campus and online.
Graduates from the programs find employment in the aviation, aerospace and IT industries. The Bachelor program enables students to study topics such as aerodynamics, aircraft systems, meteorology, navigation, pilot licences and ratings, air service operations, flight services and handling emergencies.
