Kaelan Khan Engineering Student

Thanks for checking out my portfolio! I'm currently in my last year of studies in Aerospace Engineering, looking for graduate and full-time positions after I graduate in April of 2027.

About

I'm a fourth year Aerospace Engineering student at Carleton, interested in vehicle dynamics, data analysis, powertrain, motorsports and aerospace. I like to work in fast-paced and hands-on environments.

Outside coursework I have been involved with Formula Student for numerous years with different roles and responsiblites. In my last year I have had the opportunity to contribute to a research project for the study of ambulance transportation for neonatal patients. I love to play and watch hockey. I'm currently looking for a full-time opportunities starting May 2027 or possibly earlier if part-time.
