HOW TO: CHOOSE YOUR COURSE
"Aerospace Engineering combines extensive hands on practical skills with advanced engineering analysis and cutting edge technology. You will be challenged and rewarded with an unparalleled range of skills and experiences.
The high value placed by industry on this course is evidenced by our global network of alumni not only in high-tech engineering, but sectors such as finance and management. As well as the traditional pillars of aerospace, the syllabus spans emerging areas such as AI, robotics, advanced materials, and low carbon energy for sustainable transport, to best prepare you for the future challenges in this domain."
(Alistair Revell, Head of Aerospace Engineering)

What better way to launch your experience in Aerospace, than an aircraft design project?
Take a look at some of the aircrafts our newest students designed and built, and watch as we come together to put them to the test - right from the top of the steps in our Engineering and Materials Building.
“I really enjoyed physics and science in general so I knew it had to be some type of engineering subject for me. Then I watched the livestream of the SpaceX Falcon Heavy Launch, and that's when I knew. It had to be Aerospace!”
"There has been one module which absolutely flummoxed me and that was thermo, but that only motivated me to fully understand it.”
“The uni does a lot of work with Formula 1 teams - a lot of our graduates are now in those teams. I think it's that Aerospace ability to not be phased by really complicated, complex systems.”
