Special Features

  • The ‘Pilot Studies’ element of the course gives you the opportunity to gain a National Private Pilot’s Licence. Flying training will take place at Booker Aviation and all transport to and from the airfield will be provided by the University.
  • You will have the unique opportunity to train on the College's own flight simulator.
  • You can enter the course on either the MEng or the BEng route. If you enter on the BEng route, you can transfer to the MEng programme at the end of Level 2 by obtaining an average of 60% at that level.
  • You have the opportunity to study abroad, either in Europe as an Erasmus exchange student or at Iowa University in the US, during your second year.
  • Much of our research is undertaken with collaborators outside the University, including major oil companies, vehicle manufacturers, and other leading industrial firms.
  • We have very good links with business and industry in the UK and overseas. This means that:
    • degrees are designed to meet the needs of industry and the market place
