New Program Trains Next Generation Drone Engineers For Modern Warfare
The British Army, in partnership with the New Model Institute for Technology and Engineering (NMITE), is introducing a new drone degree to train engineers in designing, building, and operating drone technology. The three-year course, which includes a fast-track option to a Masters in Engineering, aims to prepare students for careers in drone technology, with a focus on both defense and civilian applications. The program is part of the UK’s efforts to address the growing threat posed by uncrewed devices, as highlighted by the conflict in Ukraine. This development was first reported by AeroTime.
