Year 3

In the third (final) year the course includes an individual project, and allows students to undertake some of our specialist modules in aerodynamics, astronautics, materials, etc. It does however offer a more restricted choice of options than the MEng programmes, and does not include a Group Design Project.

Semester One

Students can choose a further 30 credits to be undertaken between Semester 1 and Semester 2 from our wide range of specialist modules. The modules below are typical optional modules. Please refer to the Aeronautics and Astronautics Programme Specifications for a comprehensive list of available modules.
