Bachelor of Engineering (Hons) in Aeronautical Engineering with Placement Year

Program Overview

On our Aeronautical Engineering course, you will be able to specialise in subjects that will be vital to the future of aviation, which go far beyond traditional passenger transport aircraft. There are many exciting challenges facing the sector, from finding environmentally sustainable methods of propulsion, to increasing automation, that allows unmanned aircraft to complete an ever-increasing range of tasks. This course will prepare you for a career tackling these challenges facing aviation today, and well into the future.

On this course, you can study topics such as Autonomous Vehicles, Sensor Fusion, Machine Learning, Noise Control, Experimental and Computational Fluid Dynamics, among many others. These are underpinned by learning the fundamentals of engineering and analysis techniques, equipping you for a career not only in the aeronautical and automotive sectors, but many others too.

As part of the course, students gain experience of testing and flight procedures by undertaking a flight test course, that includes up to four flights in an aircraft equipped as a flying laboratory. Our course contains modules on Aircraft and Gas Turbine Design too; these allow you to put the theory you have learned into practice as you learn how to produce detailed engineering designs to fulfil specific design briefs. In your final year, you will work as part of a team to design an aircraft of the future and work on your own original research project, working to solve a real-world engineering challenge.

Our courses are taught within the Department of Aeronautical and Automotive Engineering, where our teaching staff are engaged in pioneering research into air and ground transport, which helps keep our course up to date. We bring together outstanding facilities, superb teaching, and strong links with industry to make sure you are completely ready for your future career.

Additional Information

Careers
This course equips you for careers in all branches of the aerospace industry, airline operators, Government research establishments and appropriate branches of the armed forces.

Internationally, the aviation industry is forecasted to double in size over the next 15 years. Therefore, you will be well placed for involvement in a fast-paced and increasingly important sector of the global economy. We have also seen many of our graduates progress to become senior leaders in the aeronautical engineering sector.

Careers Fair
The School holds its own Careers Fair. In recent years, over 50 companies have attended the Careers Fair to employ our students. This includes major consulting and contracting companies in the UK, as well as more local and specialist firms. Other major employers who employ Aeronautical Engineers, as well as other graduates, also attend the University-wide careers fair.

Placement year

This course provides the option to take a paid year (minimum of 45 weeks) working in industry. Our close links with industrial partners means we can provide our students with considerable help in sourcing and securing their placement.
The placement year is optional, but it is strongly encouraged because of the many benefits it can provide. Placement students earn a salary, typically over £17,000 per annum, and many are offered a permanent job with their host company when they graduate.
The Department offers great support to help you source and secure your industrial placement.
