研究
Unlike many university-affiliated programs that pursue mainly theoretical research, the 航空电子设备 工程 Center supports the entire life cycle of avionics engineering, from identifying needs to conceptualization and actual design, 发展, 实现, 测试, and improvement of various electronic systems for aviation.
和, unlike many government agencies or private-sector contractors, we have the resources and flexibility of a research institution, including world-class facilities, simulation tools and field 测试 capabilities.
We benefit from our access to faculty members who serve as consultants, 工作人员工程师, 和技术人员, and undergraduate and graduate student-interns familiar with the most recent 发展s in avionics.
Our research projects cover a range of avionics topics, including advanced flight 控制, GPS and Local Area Augmentation Systems, Joint Precision Approach and Landing Systems, Automatic Dependent Surveillance Broadcast, Dual Airborne Laser Scanner, Distance Measuring Equipment, high fidelity signal quality monitoring, as well as field and flight inspections, 评估, 和测试.
Because of our unique services and impressive track record, the 航空电子设备 工程 Center has been awarded contracts totaling more than $135 million from sponsors like the Federal 航空 Administration (FAA), the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), 和美国.S. Department of Defense, as well as from state and foreign governments and private industry.

Student 研究 Opportunities
Through our affiliation with the Russ College School of Electrical 工程 and Computer Science, we offer both undergraduate and graduate students the chance to get into the lab and experience engineering in a real-world applications.
Undergraduate students at the Russ College can choose electives in avionics subjects, including electronic navigation systems or communications, 控制 and electromagnetics. Through senior design projects and internship experiences at the 航空电子设备 工程 Center, undergraduates can study avionics beyond the classroom.
在研究生阶段, a concentration in electronic navigation systems is available to Russ College students in the Ph.D. 和论文选项M.S. programs in the School of Electrical 工程 and Computer Science, including research opportunities at our center.
