    About

    Course overview Aerospace Engineering BEng (Hons)

    This accredited integrated master’s covers mechanical, computational and sustainable life-cycle engineering in this high-tech field. Over four years, students learn to develop professional engineering skills, with a focus on innovative and sustainable solutions to current and future Aeronautics and Aerospace trends.

    Individual and group engineering design projects demonstrate students expertise to future employers. Whilst a fourth year, at master’s level, it helps to transition from study to professional practice.

    • Benefit from strong links to industry and exceptional industry involvement in the degree programme. Profit from City’s vision of sustainable engineering, a fundamental aspect in future Aerospace engineering.
    • Study in world leading test facilities, including our low-turbulence wind-tunnel and high-speed tunnel belonging to the UK National Wind Tunnel Facility initiative.
    • Work with modern state-of-the art experimental equipment and high-performance computational fluid solvers, both being developed at City and supported by world-experts in those fields.
    • Enjoy easy access to our central London location and benefit from the links to our international aviation program, with City being the hub for the aviation industry with satellites in Dubai and Germany.
    • Boost your employability within an optional placement year or placement over two summer periods, which offers first-hand experience in professional industry. Recent placements have included BAE SYSTEMS, Rolls Royce, Raytheon.

    Accreditation

    Our current Aeronautical Engineering degrees are accredited by the Royal Aeronautical Society providing a path for you to gain Chartered Engineering status. We have every expectation that these degrees will similarly receive full accreditation.

    This degree equips you with skills in design, construction, analysis and testing of aerospace systems. As an aerospace engineer, you will be a pillar of scientific and technical knowledge in air transport, defence and aerospace, the UK's fastest growing engineering sectors.

    Students develop a strong technical background in the key subjects of Aerospace Engineering such as air/space-ship structure, design, propulsion, control and manufacturing. Management studies and sustainable life-cycle engineering skills are also integral parts of the course.

    Career

    Aerospace engineers are the key personnel to support the shift towards a sustainable Aerospace industry while facing the strong demand in growth of aerial transport, defence, satellite communication and space exploration.

    There is a huge demand for engineers with multi-disciplinary skills and good training with international teams to address those challenges. City graduates will have grown in such an environment during their studies and have worked in interdisciplinary projects, addressing the need for such educational and practical preparation for the industry. This is documented in good employability at the top tier industry.

    Recent graduates have secured work with:

    • BAE SYSTEMS
    • Airbus
    • Rolls Royce
    • Raytheon
    • Bombardier
    • Dassault.
