This course offers you the opportunity to study a more extensive range of advanced aerospace subjects than the BEng course. As in the BEng Aeronautics and Astronautics, you will gain a solid foundation in aerospace engineering such as aerodynamics, astronautics and propulsion along with a wider appreciation of the economic, legal and environmental issues associated with aircraft operations and aircraft performance. You can study from a broader range of subjects, including modern languages. Practical application is integral to our courses, providing students with hands-on engineering experience in our world-class facilities. You can also take the Industrial Placement Year, providing the opportunity for a year-long placement with an engineering-based organisation. You will have the opportunity to spend a semester at one of our partner institutions in France, Sweden, Italy, the Netherlands, or the USA. The first two years will develop your core knowledge of engineering science with a focus on aeronautics. You will also take a practical short course in flight testing, where experiments are performed on board a Jetstream aircraft. The modules in year three differ depending on whether you spend the first or second semester abroad. In year four, you will develop your knowledge of aircraft design and participate in a group design project. Previous examples include the design and build of an unmanned air vehicle and a lunar hopper. In your final year, you can specialise in a range of interdisciplinary modules, from Race Car Aerodynamics to Aeroacoustics. The course requires no additional tuition cost. You can also take the Industrial Placement Year, which is an additional year-long module that allows you to apply for a placement with an engineering-based organisation. The successful placement will be recognised on your Degree Certificate.
