Course description
Why study this course?
Project-based learning
Our system of project-based learning integrates engineering science with practical projects. Throughout the programme you will design, build and fly complex air systems such as drones, rockets and quad planes. These realistic, open-ended problems will make you a better engineer and prepare you for industry.
Personalised, tailored education
As a large faculty with many academics, we offer a diverse selection of optional modules that cover the world-leading research undertaken within the faculty, empowering you to shape your degree by selecting subjects aligned with your interests.
State-of-the-art facilities
Access a high quality laboratory education in a unique and state-of-the-art facility, including the opportunity to operate and examine jet engine technologies.
Personal tutorials
From day one, your personal tutor will be your regular point of contact for both pastoral and academic support throughout your studies. The small group academic tutorial system strengthens the student-tutor bond and helps you to develop as an independent learner.
Vibrant student and staff community
Our excellent ‘student voice’ is consistently recognised and rated highly in the National Student Survey (NSS). Students are encouraged to be involved and have a say in their own education and to work together with staff to improve their aerospace engineering programmes.
