Program Overview

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. 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 (Master of Engineering). The MEng builds on the BEng course with a masters year and is a direct route to a masters qualification. Find out more about the benefits of an integrated masters degree.
