AEROSPACE IS FOR YOU IF...
Ask any of our professors and they will tell you it's not so much what you know, it's about the way you think - and this often surprises our students to-be! Take a look at this list below and see if any of these focus areas sound like you, if so this subject could make a very good match.
1. YOU AIM HIGH
Do you like a challenge? You're in good company in this discipline.
Aerospace Engineering is often known as one of the most challenging of the engineering discipline, and we think that makes the results even more rewarding!
2. YOU PUSH BOUNDARIES
A true engineer of any variety is someone not afraid to try and fail at new methodologies and inventions, but as an aerospace student you might try building 30 aircrafts - for just one of those to take flight as intended.
But that's all part of the fun, right?

“If you want a course that pushes you and stretches your ability, it's Aerospace."

“I find thermofluids really challenging and in that way rewarding!"
3. YOU WANT TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE
As an Aerospace Engineer, you have the opportunity to move the way technology is used forward.
The University of Manchester is the perfect place to do that, with research encompassing everything from sustainable transport and satellite technology, to exploring space solutions for materials and resource.
4. YOU WANT TO OPEN DOORS
Research-led, everything you learn at Manchester is at the cutting edge.
From drone technology to satellite systems, and from flight simulation to the real thing, our students benefit from learning from academics working on ever-expanding technology and inventions.

“We get to work with people from all kinds of disciplines. From the things you might expect, biology, medicine, or physics - all the way to music and museums!"

“It's great to have chosen such a growing field, one that's pushing boundaries. I love that there's no limit to what you can do - if you have an idea, there's a way to do it!"
5. YOU WANT A COMMUNITY
At Manchester, you not only join a long and rich history of engineering talent - but you also join forces with students with a level of aligned passions and interests unlike you've ever known.
Aerospace Engineers are well known for coming together not only for the fun times, but also the crunch times. The friendships you forge are for life!
