Urban Air Mobility
View the course trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EimqY7-0yRs&t=33s How can the traffic collapse of the global multimillion cities be prevented? One way out could lead upwards: Urban air transport. By 2030, it is estimated that around 60 percent of humanity will live in cities. If it is possible to shift some of the traffic from the roads to the air, researchers believe this could help to further ensure the basic human need for mobility. But there are still some technical, social, and legal preconditions to be met. The course gives a first introduction to the relatively new field of Urban Air Mobility, explaining the technical background as well as giving an overview of all other necessities such as air traffic management, public acceptance, and ecological sustainability. This course is primarily aimed at master's students and PhD candidates and young professionals interested in exploring new fields in aerospace.

Good overview of most elements. Needs to be updated with latest content and industry progress. Need more on Vertiport design.

Very good on understanding the complete environment of eVTOL production, deployment and operation. But it is already outdated in terms of available technologies and regulations.

Reviewed Mar 16, 2025It could have been in more detail, for example a few modules felt like they were lacking something whereas some modules which including modeling part were pretty good, overall there is scope for improvement so i think it is a decent 4 star

Reviewed Aug 14, 2023The course provided a strong insight of the concept of UAM. It must have some interactive and practical aspect such as designing a vertiport . It must also include air traffic control insight of the subject too.
