educational rocketry programs

Educational rocketry programs involve students designing, building, and testing model rockets to learn about physics, engineering, and aerodynamics. They foster hands-on experience with concepts such as flight dynamics, propulsion, and safety procedures, often culminating in competitive launches or projects. These programs aim to develop critical thinking, problem-solving, collaboration, and technical skills in a practical, engaging way, preparing students for advanced STEM careers. By combining theory with real-world application, educational rocketry provides a structured environment for understanding how complex aerospace systems work.
