About this course
This stream within the Department of Aeronautics combines the study of aeronautical engineering with the opportunity to undertake an internship in industry between years three and four. All students follow a common programme of study for the first two years. After this, students on target to achieve a minimum of a 2:1, who have organised a suitable placement, may transfer to our Year in Industry study stream. All students should apply initially for the standard MEng Aeronautical Engineering degree (H401). What...
