Our Aerospace Systems Engineering courses develop the skills and knowledge required by graduate engineers to join the teams of aerospace engineers worldwide, designing and developing systems for the next generation of aircraft.The programme aims to enable you to develop a thorough understanding of the fundamental principles of systems engineering and how this knowledge is applied in the Aerospace Industry.


Key Course Benefits

* The course helps you develop a thorough, integrated understanding of mechanical, electrical and systems engineering and how this knowledge is applied in the aerospace industry. and you will have the opportunity to learn to apply your knowledge using industry standard tools and practices.* You will be taught by staff with industrial experience, having worked extensively in the sector. Their research expertise ranges from aerodynamics, flight dynamics, aircraft structural analysis, crashworthiness modelling and avionics to human factors in aviation and is utilised both within the research-informed teaching on the course, and in the final year project.* The combined theoretical and practical focus of the programme concentrates on engineering mathematics, mechanical, electrical and thermodynamic design, system simulation and modelling, control systems, aerodynamics, aircraft structures and manufacturing - all of whichgives successful graduates a strong base from which to start your professional work in aerospace design.
