Course programme
You will study the same courses in the first three years whether you are on the BEng or MEng degree programme.
Year 1In your first year, you will take a wide-ranging curriculum which includes courses in aeronautics, mathematics, dynamics, electronics, materials, statics, thermodynamics and engineering skills. These courses are supported by individual and group project work and laboratory work. This interdisciplinary approach, favoured by industry, also makes it easy to switch to another engineering discipline at the end of year 1 should you wish to do so.
Year 2You will study applicable mathematics, applied mechanics, design and manufacture, microeconomics, elements of thermodynamics for aerospace propulsion, engineering computing, introduction to aerodynamics, additional mathematics, materials and power electronics.
Year 3You will visit a number of industries in the UK and study more advanced engineering subjects: aerodynamics and fluid mechanics, aircraft performance, dynamics and control, flight mechanics, materials and manufacture, mathematical modelling and simulation, mechanics of materials and structures, propulsion and turbomachinery, and heat transfer.
Years 4 and 5In year 4 you will study a range of core mechanical engineering subjects and core aeronautics subjects, plus a choice of advanced options. You will also undertake a team aerospace design project. Year 4 MEng students also undertake a multidisciplinary group project.
In year 5 of the MEng programme an aerospace-focused individual project forms a major component of the programme, and in addition there are options from advanced engineering subjects.
Partnership and industry linksYou will benefit from the close ties with industry developed by staff involved in the programme, with industrial case studies focused on the aerospace industries.
Our international linksYou can apply to spend one year of your academic studies abroad at an accredited partner university. In year 5 MEng students can work on their project at overseas institutions.
