Aerospace Engineering (with Foundation Year) Beng (Hon)

Mathematics underpins every great engineering solution. That’s why, in your first year, we focus on mathematics and support you to develop a board knowledge of engineering and science. You’ll be ready for anything once you move on to BEng (Hons) Aerospace Engineering in your second year.<br/><br/>With a focus on sustainability and environmental issues, you’ll have opportunities to get involved in industry projects. Coupled with our support, you’ll develop into a creative and confident engineering graduate.<br/><br/>It’s OK if you want to change direction at the end of your foundation year. The flexibility means that we can support you if you want to move onto one of our other engineering or mathematics courses in your second year.<br/><br/>You’ll learn by taking part in a series of projects both individually and in a group. This develops your problem-solving and creative thinking skills – an essential quality for a professional engineer. During your second year you’ll compete as part of a team to win the **Grand Challenge,** an engineering problem posed by industry.<br/><br/>**This course is recognised by CDIO,** a framework that has a project based learning approach. This framework stresses engineering fundamentals set in the context of Conceiving — Designing — Implementing — Operating (CDIO) real-world systems and products. The framework is dedicated to providing students with their initial grounding in engineering through live projects.
