Develop engineering, computational, and analytical skills, as well as the specific knowledge and experience required for careers in the aerospace industry.
Before choosing to continue or transfer to another course, all students apply to this degree, MEng Aeronautical Engineering (H401).
You'll gain a solid understanding of aerodynamics, lightweight structures, and structural mechanics, as well as flight mechanics.
You will study mechatronics, flight mechanics, propulsion and turbomachinery during year two, as well as attend a flight-testing course at Cranfield University's National Flying Laboratory Centre.
In years three and four, you can choose from an extensive range of optional modules on specialist topics, allowing you to focus on aeronautical engineering areas of interest and access cutting-edge research.
A group project in year three gives you the chance to simulate the work of a design team to take a design concept through different stages.
During year four, you will complete a variety of advanced modules and an individual research project to allow you to pursue your own research.
At the end of the second year, students who are on target to achieve a 2:1 or above may apply to transfer to our Year Abroad course, Year in Industry course, or Spacecraft Engineering course. If you are an international student, transferring to a different course could have an impact on your Tier 4 visa, but our International Student Support Team are here to help advise and support you.
This degree is professionally accredited by the following organisations on behalf of the Engineering Council:
- Royal Aeronautical Society (RAeS)
- Institution of Mechanical Engineers (IMechE)
With a professionally accredited degree, you’ll be able to demonstrate to employers that you have achieved an industry-recognised standard of competency. Professional accreditation also provides international recognition of your qualifications, which you can use to launch a career abroad.
With this integrated Master’s degree, you’ll fully meet the educational requirements for professional registration as a Chartered Engineer (CEng).
Becoming a Chartered Engineer can further enhance your career prospects and earning potential. It demonstrates your competencies and commitment to lifelong learning – providing you with recognition in your field and greater influence and opportunities.
In addition to your degree, you’ll receive the Associateship of the City and Guilds of London Institute (ACGI) upon completion of this course. This associateship is awarded by one of our historic constituent Colleges.
