The Institute of Jet Propulsion offers consecutive classes in the field of turbomachinery and aircraft propulsion, both in the bachelor's and master's program for various courses of study at the University of the Bundeswehr Munich.
In addition to lectures, students are offered seminars, internships in the field of turbomachinery and a wide range of project involvement for student theses.

Practical Course "Turbomachinery"
At ISA we offer a hands on experience on turbomachinery testing in the Master curriculum. In this course the students participate in compressor rig testing and a final engine test at our test facility.
Seminar
In cooperation with the Chair of Turbomachinery and Flight Propulsion at the Technical University Munich, the ISA is organizing a lecture series on relevant and current topics of the world of turbomachinery and propulsion. The series comprises presentations from up-to-date topics of relevant industrial partners, as well as selected research topics.
