Study aerospace design while learning how to manage its processes, people and finances. You'll explore many aspects of aerospace engineering, including the design and manufacture of fast-moving aircraft and spacecraft, before specialising in strategy and project management. This course aims to help engineers quickly progress into key positions in aerospace engineering management.
Aeronautics and Astronautics looks at the science, engineering and manufacture of aircraft and spacecraft. You'll learn how they operate within our atmosphere and in space.
On MEng Aeronautics and Astronautics / Engineering Management you'll study the principles of aerospace engineering, then take more advanced modules, including modules specialising in business strategy, finance, and managing people and projects.
In year 3 you'll do an individual research project. In year 4 you'll take part in a group design project.
You'll get hands-on experience in our extensive facilities, which include:
-
dedicated student design studios and workshops
-
the largest wind tunnel in any UK university
-
jet laboratory with supersonic ramjet, turbojet and rocket engine
-
Boeing flight simulator
-
a professional manufacturing centre
As part of this aeronautics and astronautics engineering management course you can:
-
showcase your work in our annual Engineering Design Show
-
attend site visits to experience engineering in practice
-
apply your engineering knowledge to solve a real-world problem
You can take this course with an additional year-long, paid placement. Apply with UCAS code HH44 for the Industrial Placement Year option.
