About

Surrey is one of the UK's leading universities for aerospace engineering with our courses ranked top 10 in the UK in The Times and Sunday Times Good University Guide 2022 and the Complete University Guide 2023. As a BEng or MEng student, you'll have access to state-of-the-art wind-tunnel research facilities and learn from world-leading experts in the field.

Our close links with industry help develop your employment skills, while our award-winning Professional Training placements prepare you for roles in various sectors.

You can also hone your practical, teamwork and leadership skills by joining one of our successful and dynamic student competition design groups. These include the UAS Challenge team.

We deliver on jobs, too. This is why we were named University of the Year for Graduate Employment in The Times/Sunday Times Good University Guide for 2022.

This course is professionally accredited by the Institution of Mechanical Engineers and the Royal Aeronautical Society.

Our aerospace engineering courses encompass advanced materials, design, aerodynamics, space systems, propulsion, and the latest in computational and simulation tools.

By using our extensive facilities for aerodynamics and materials testing, including our demonstrator jet engine and flight simulator, you'll put the theory you learn into practice.

With our research-led teaching, specialists will guide you in areas such as aircraft and environmental aerodynamics, propulsion, computational fluid dynamics and modelling of flows in gas-turbine engines (with links to our Rolls-Royce University Technology Centre).

You can apply to study for either a BEng or MEng. The latter builds on the BEng with a masters year and is a direct route to a masters qualification. Find out more about the benefits of an integrated masters degree.

Requirements

Entry Requirements

We do not accept school leaving qualifications from Jordan. However, if you do not meet the direct entry requirements for a course, you can apply to study an International Foundation Year programme at the University of Surrey International Study Centre. Upon successful completion, you can progress to an undergraduate degree at the University of Surrey.

Career

Professional recognition

BEng (Hons) - Institution of Mechanical Engineers (IMechE)
The accredited BEng (Hons) will meet, in part, the exemplifying academic benchmark requirements for registration as a Chartered Engineer and Students will need to complete an approved format of further learning pursuant to the requirements of UKSPEC. The accredited BEng (Hons) will also automatically meet in full, the exemplifying academic benchmark requirements for registration as an Incorporated Engineer (IEng).

BEng (Hons) - Royal Aeronautical Society (RAeS)
Accredited by the Royal Aeronautical Society (RAeS) on behalf of the Engineering Council for the purposes of fully meeting the academic requirement for registration as an Incorporated Engineer and partially meeting the academic requirement for registration as a Chartered Engineer.

MEng - Institution of Mechanical Engineers (IMechE)
The accredited MEng fully meets the exemplifying academic benchmark requirements, for registration as a Chartered Engineer (CEng).

MEng - Royal Aeronautical Society (RAeS)
Accredited by the Royal Aeronautical Society (RAeS) on behalf of the Engineering Council for the purposes of fully meeting the academic requirement for registration as a Chartered Engineer.

Careers and graduate prospects

We offer careers information, advice and guidance to all students whilst studying with us, which is extended to our alumni for three years after leaving the University.

Over the last decade, our employment figures have been among the best in the UK. This was a key factor in Surrey being named University of the Year for Graduate Employment in The Times/Sunday Times Good University Guide for 2022. In the Graduate Outcomes survey 2022 results show 95 per cent of our undergraduate mechanical engineering sciences students go on to employment or further study.

Most graduates proceed directly to employment in an engineering profession. Many have entered employment in roles such as:

GE90 Strategic Propulsion Engineer, GE Aviation
Graduate Engineer, Rolls-Royce
Graduate Engineer, Siemens Rail Automation
Graduate Flight Physics Engineer, QinetiQ
Mission Systems Engineer, Airbus Defence and Space
Quality Engineer, Thales UK
Telecoms Satellite Designer, Airbus.

Our graduates also find their highly developed skills and abilities are valued in many other fields.
