Aerospace engineering research at Bristol is organised via cross-faculty research groups with interests spanning four key areas:Fluid Flow and AerodynamicsBristol Composites Institute (BCI)Dynamics and ControlRobotics.This work is supported by at least 50 academic staff, more than 70 research staff and over 240 postgraduate students, plus a highly experienced administrative and technical support team.Aerospace engineering is a specific discipline involving experimental, numerical, theoretical and computational research which is later applied to aerospace-related problems, for example, fixed-wing aircraft, rotorcraft, wind turbines and UAVs.All postgraduates would expect to publish in high-quality journals and present at international conferences. Hence, research programmes are aimed at independent and self-motivated applicants.
