Our aerospace engineering courses encompass advanced materials, design, aerodynamics, space systems, propulsion, and the latest in computational and simulation tools.

By using our extensive facilities for aerodynamics and materials testing, including our demonstrator jet engine and flight simulator, you’ll put the theory you learn into practice.

With our research-led teaching, specialists will guide you in areas such as aircraft and environmental aerodynamics, propulsion, computational fluid dynamics and modelling of flows in gas-turbine engines (with links to our Rolls-Royce University Technology Centre).

You can apply to study for either a BEng or MEng (Master of Engineering). The MEng builds on the BEng course with a masters year and is a direct route to a masters qualification. Find out more about the benefits of an integrated masters degree.

Most of our graduates proceed directly to employment in an engineering profession. Recent graduates have entered employment in roles such as:

• GE90 Strategic Propulsion Engineer, GE Aviation
• Graduate Engineer, Rolls-Royce
• Graduate Engineer, Siemens Rail Automation
• Graduate Flight Physics Engineer, QinetiQ
• Mission Systems Engineer, Airbus Defence and Space
• Quality Engineer, Thales UK
• Telecoms Satellite Designer, Airbus.

Our graduates also find their highly developed skills and abilities are valued in many other fields.
