As a Bachelor of Engineering (BEng) or Master of Engineering (MEng) student, you'll gain access to cutting-edge wind-tunnel research facilities and be taught by globally recognized experts. Our strong industry connections enhance your employability skills, while our acclaimed Professional Training placements ready you for careers across diverse sectors. You can further develop hands-on, collaborative, and leadership abilities by participating in our thriving student design competition teams, such as the UAS Challenge squad. This program holds professional accreditation from both the Institution of Mechanical Engineers and the Royal Aeronautical Society.
Our aerospace engineering curriculum covers innovative materials, design principles, aerodynamics, space systems, propulsion technologies, and modern computational/simulation methods. Through hands-on work in our comprehensive aerodynamics and materials testing facilities - featuring a demonstrator jet engine and flight simulator - you'll apply theoretical knowledge in practical settings. Our research-driven approach means you'll learn from specialists in aircraft aerodynamics, environmental aerodynamics, propulsion systems, computational fluid dynamics, and gas-turbine engine flow modeling (with connections to our Rolls-Royce University Technology Centre).
You may choose between the BEng or MEng pathways. The MEng program extends the BEng with an additional master's year, providing a direct path to a postgraduate qualification. If uncertain about which option suits you best, we recommend viewing our engineering options explained video that clarifies the distinctions between these two degree paths.
