Outline of Fuel and Propellant Engineering Department
Fuel and Propellant technologies are important in a wide range of fields including fossil fuels forming, production and processing, synthetic fuels production, improvements of fuel ability, using solid or liquid propellants or fuel in rockets and missiles, etc… Moreover, we are focusing on energy conversion technology, construction and operation of rockets and the creation of environment protection systems. These technologies come under the category of development in chemical processes which are in a wide range of harmony with the environment.
Fuel and Propellant Engineering Department was established in 2002 at Myanmar Aerospace Engineering University, MAEU, with the classes taught by three lecturers. Daw Mon New Ni Moe, a graduate from Yangon Technological University, YTU with B.E and M.E degrees from YTU, became head of department in 2004. In 2005, Daw Mon New Ni Moe was transferred and succeeded by Dr. Moe Thanda Kyi, who is the department head at present. Dr. Moe Thanda Kyi, a graduate from Mandalay Technological University, MTU with B.E and Ph.D degrees and M.E degree from Yangon Technological University, YTU.
The first batch of graduates of Fuel and Propellant Engineering was in 2007. Post graduate (master) classes were first started in 2010, organized and supervised by Dr. Moe Thanda Kyi, Daw Thuzar Thein, Daw Khin Chaw Sandar, Daw Shwe Sin Moe and Daw Lin Lin Swe. Now, number of teaching staffs is 9.The Department has always been helping other universities, departments and academies. Therefore, Department of Fuel and Propellant Engineering is in great momentum in producing qualified engineers who will be of great service to our homeland.
