Bachelor's in Aerospace Engineering with a Year in Industry BEng (Hons)

Introduction The Aerospace Engineering with a Year in Industry MEng is a four-year integrated Master’s degree developed to fast-track our graduates to become Chartered Engineers either with the Institution of Mechanical Engineers or the Royal Aeronautical Society. As an aerospace engineering student, you will experience a wide variety of topics and modes of study, whether it be conducting research, analysing reports or designing and building an aircraft. By studying the MEng, you will develop a greater depth and breadth and specialist knowledge in core aerospace subjects than on the three year BEng degree programme. At the end of the degree you will be able to demonstrate further key skills required by employers in advanced modules such as advanced aerodynamics; advanced aerostructures; flight handling qualities; advanced guidance systems and enterprise studies. On this year in industry programme, you will spend year three of this programme on a year-long placement with an approved company/organisation. During this time, you will develop work-based transferrable skills and professional competences leading to enhanced employability which will make you well placed to take up opportunities in project-based, research and management roles, both within the aerospace sector as well as other engineering industries and beyond. The year in industry is dependent upon placements being available and is subject to your performance in previous years.
