Aerospace Engineering - MEng (Hons)

You'll gain both breadth and depth of knowledge across the full range of aeronautical and aerospace engineering. You'll also gain the additional project management experience and practical skills which employers demand on this four year course.With an integrated masters, launch your career with this four year masters degree in aerospace engineering – gaining an advanced understanding of essential theories, and hands-on practice building and flying aircraft.Years one to three of this course follow the curriculum of our MEng. Working with our leading academics, you’ll learn about propulsion, instrumentation, the computation and design of aerodynamics and aircraft control.By choosing to take an MEng, you’ll be taking a longer period of study with an integrated masters.We’ll teach you how to manage a project from start to finish, and how to communicate with people from a wide range of engineering disciplines. And of course you will gain the hand-on experience of flying and building aircraft.In year three, you’ll decide whether to focus on avionic systems or aeromechanics, and complete an investigative project of your choice. This sets you up for a fourth year exploring your chosen path in greater detail.From space systems and space weather, to materials and manufacturing, Sheffield’s Aerospace Engineering MEng gives you the advanced skills and knowledge vital to a successful career.This course is accredited by the Royal Aeronautical Society, the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, the Institution of Engineering and Technology and the Institute of Materials, Minerals and Mining.Why study this course- Top 5 for aeronautical and manufacturing engineering - as rated by The Times and Sunday Times Good University Guide 2024.
