Program Overview

If you’re focused on a career in aerospace then a course with a year in industry is worth considering. As well as gaining vital experience and making contacts, you will be paid a salary during your year out. The course also includes a group project where you help design, build and fly an unmanned aerial vehicle. Academics in this department work closely with Boeing, Airbus UK, BAE Systems and Rolls-Royce. Graduates work for those organisations and others including BP, Jaguar Land Rover, Nissan and the Ministry of Defence, in specialisms such as aerospace design, aviation, manufacturing and energy. Some go on to postgraduate study or research.
