Hans-Georg Münzberg (21 August 1916 – 7 November 2000) was a German engineer who specialized in airplane turbines and space flight.

[1] He studied mechanical engineering at the Deutsche Technische Hochschule [de] in Prague from 1934, graduating with the diploma in 1939.

He earned his Ph.D. in June 1942 with a dissertation on "Das Gasturbinentriebwerk als Antriebsaggregat für Hochgeschwindigkeitsflugzeuge" (The gas turbine engine as a power unit for high-speed aircraft).

[1] After World War II, he worked in a French group of scientists including Hermann Oestrich at the "Atelier Aéronautique in Rickenbach" near Lindau which developed the Snecma Atar system of propulsion, which was moved to France.

[2] In 1964, giving up his position at Snecma and professorship in Berlin, Münzberg was appointed professor at the TH Munich,[2] where he founded the chair and institute of flight propulsion (Flugantriebe).
