Aerospace Engineering Beng (Hon)

This course gives you a solid grounding in aerospace engineering. Youll learn how to communicate effectively with people from a wide range of engineering disciplines.<br/><br/><strong>Launch your career with this three year exploration of aerospace engineering theory, and hands-on practice of building and flying aircraft.</strong><br/><br/>From a solid base of essential theories, you’ll explore propulsion, instrumentation, the computation and design of aerodynamics and aircraft control.<br/><br/>As you progress, you’ll tailor the degree to match your career path – choosing to focus on either avionic systems or aeromechanics, and completing an investigative project of your choice.<br/><br/>We’ll teach you how to manage a project from start to finish, and how to communicate with people from a wide range of engineering disciplines. In your final year, youll work on a research project led by one of our world leading academics.<br/><br/>Along the way, you’ll have the opportunity to fly and build aircraft, take part in national and international competitions, and ultimately graduate with the hands-on experience you need to progress in the aerospace industry.<br/><br/><strong>This course is accredited by the Royal Aeronautical Society, the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, the Institution of Engineering and Technology and the Institute of Materials, Minerals and Mining.</strong><br/><br/><strong>Why study this course?</strong><br/>- <strong>Top 5 for aeronautical and manufacturing engineering</strong> - as rated by The Times and Sunday Times Good University Guide 2024.
