WHY CHOOSE THIS COURSE?

The work carried out on this course will provide the demonstrable expertise necessary to help secure professional level employment in related industries.

The Aerospace Engineering MSc curriculum consists of eight mandatory core topics and a substantial MSc project. Successful completion of all elements leads to the award of MSc in Aerospace Engineering. Completion of the taught modules without a project leads to the award of a Post Graduate Diploma.

WHAT WILL I LEARN?

The mandatory study topics are as follows:

  • Sustainable Aviation;
  • Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Systems (UAV);
  • Experimental Methods and Techniques;
  • Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD);
  • Advanced Materials and Processes;
  • Engineering Analysis and Simulation (FEA);
  • Flight Dynamics and Simulation;
  • Project Management;
  • Individual Project.

The substantial individual project gives students the opportunity to work on a detailed area of related technology alongside an experienced academic supervisor. Some projects are offered in conjunction with the work of the Faculty’s research centres or industry. Typical project titles include:

  • Integration of Advanced Materials into Aircraft Structures;
  • Sustainable Aircraft Development and Design;
  • Intelligent Power Generation;
  • UAV SWARM Systems.

You will have access to:

  • Unique Flight Simulator Suite (3 flight simulators, 2 UAV ground control systems plus the associated UAV,1 Air Traffic Control unit);
  • Harrier Jump Jet;
  • New bespoke Mercedes-Petronas low speed wind tunnel and associated measurement;
  • Faculty workshop (metal/woodwork), Composites Laboratory, Metrology Laboratory, Electrical Laboratory, Communications and Signal Processing Laboratory, Cogent Wireless Intelligent Sensing Laboratory;
  • Faculty Open Access Computer Facilities.
