WELCOME TO AEROSPACE

Our subject in a nutshell, advice from students, and how you can get support on your university journey - from day one.

WHAT WE DO...

Commercial aeroplanes, UAVs, spacecrafts, the challenges humans face both tackling growing issues on Earth and beyond it - this is the realm our students live and breathe in.

As an Aerospace Engineer you can design, plan, test, and build some of the most exciting and advanced technology in the world - with boundless career opportunities.

What better place to begin that journey than at the first English University to offer an Engineering degree?

HERE TO GUIDE YOU: OUR STUDENTS

Nobody knows what it feels like to scope out subjects and universities as well as those who stood in your shoes just a short time ago.

So, we sat down with our students and asked them to anonymously share their course experiences, insight, and honest words of wisdom. You'll find their advice throughout this brochure.

Enjoy exploring Aerospace Engineering at The University of Manchester. We hope to see you at our next Open Day!

"Some of our biggest challenges are net-zero, transport for everybody, satellite networks, internet infrastructure around the world, and global resilience. To be able to respond quickly to natural hazards, for example."

"In this case, what you're learning actually is rocket science - and that's pretty cool. It might surprise people to know that's not always the hardest part!"

"Aerospace is a super cross-discipline, high-tech topic. As a kid interested in physics, tech, design, or IT, this degree has it all. It's hard not to find it all incredibly fascinating and motivating!"

We understand every stage of your journey - from discovering the right subject, to waiting for your A-Level Results!
