2、历史沿革
1958年北航成立了我国首个火箭系，其中导弹设计教研室就是其重要的组成部分，也是当时全国唯一的导弹设计专业。由于行业归并的原因，1973年火箭系解散，导弹设计教研室划归原飞行器设计与应用力学系（5系）。1988年北航在原火箭系基础上成立宇航学院，其中新建了空间飞行器设计教研室，2年后又将原5系的导弹设计教研室并入宇航学院，并成立了运载火箭教研室，由此与当时国家的学科专业目录“空间飞行器设计”和“导弹与运载火箭设计”相对应，其中我院“空间飞行器设计”专业1997年获批成为博士点（全国高校中此专业仅2个）。2001年，根据国家专业目录合并的发展趋势，宇航学院合并原“空间飞行器设计”、“运载火箭设计”和“导弹设计”3个教研室，成立了目前的航天飞行器技术系。

2、History Evolution
In 1958,thefirstRocket Department in China wasfoundedin Beihang University and simultaneously the Education & Research Section of Missile Design was established. In 1973, the Rocket Department disbanded due tothe reorientation of disciplines in Beihang University, andthe Missile DesignSection wasincorporatedintotheDepartment of Flight Vehicle Design and Applied Mechanics in Beihang University.In 1988,theSchool of Astronautics (SA)was founded on the basis of theoriginalRocketDepartment,and the Education & Research Section of Spacecraft Design was set up. Two years later, the Missile Design Section reintegrated itself into SA and was renamed as the Education & Research Section of Launch Vehicle Design. The two Education & Research sections precisely correspond with the contemporaneous national standard discipline, Spacecraft Design and Missile & Launch Vehicle Design. Thus, in 1997, the major in SA, Spacecraft Design, was approved by China’s Department of Education to grant the doctorate degree. In 2001, in accordance with the development of the integration of national disciplines, the three Education & Research sections in SA, including the Spacecraft Design Section, the Launch Vehicle Section, and the Missile Design Section, were combined toestablish thecurrentDepartment of Spacecraft and Launch Vehicle Technology.
