Student Testimonials
“Over my 3.5 years on the team, I was fortunate enough to design and launch numerous rockets in Australia and the United States. This team provides opportunities to enthusiastic people and provides them with hands-on experience that makes them stand out in their careers. Monash HPR is more than just a student team, it is a launchpad for future engineers and leaders.
Joining Monash HPR has been the most fulfilling aspect of my University career and I highly recommend it to anyone who is looking to apply the knowledge they learn in class to real-world innovation and to meet others who are interested in engineering, maths, science and business.”
— Angus McLennan
“My time with Monash High Powered Rocketry (HPR) was transformative and instrumental in shaping my career. As a Simulations Engineer and Dynamics Team Lead, I gained invaluable hands-on experience that bridged the gap between theory and practice, preparing me for the challenges of the aerospace industry.
The skills I developed, technical expertise, teamwork, and problem-solving have been directly applicable in my current role as a Modelling and Simulations Engineer at Nominal Systems, where I now manage and oversee the delivery of most external projects. Monash HPR provided a unique platform to demonstrate passion and dedication to aerospace, qualities that set candidates apart in a competitive industry.
Being part of this team not only solidified my passion for aerospace but also gave me a strong foundation for success. I highly recommend Monash HPR to anyone looking to distinguish themselves and gain meaningful, real-world experience."

“Being part of Monash High Powered Rocketry has been one of the most rewarding and enjoyable experiences of my life. From the challenge of developing innovative systems like thrust vector control (TVC) to the unforgettable moments at Spaceport America Cup, my time with the team was filled with exciting projects and incredible opportunities.
What truly stands out, though, are the amazing people I had the privilege of working alongside and getting to know. Collaborating with other passionate, talented and like-minded individuals made every project more rewarding.
Monash HPR was not just about rockets; it was about developing real engineering solutions, creating friendships, and lasting memories, and the thrill of tackling difficult problems together. It’s something I’ll always look back on fondly.”
