Course summary

Enhance your engineering training or convert to an advanced engineering discipline from a background in mathematics, physics or computer science. This course focuses on the scientific programming needed to perform numerical computations and experimental techniques for aeronautics. You'll be equipped to solve complex problems numerically. As a result, you will be able to write and develop commercial software packages, rather than simply use them. Your particular interest in aerospace engineering will be matched by a series of research-informed modules centred on the latest theories and developments in this area. You'll also complete an individual research project, in which you can focus on your theoretical, computational or experimental interests. Our industry contributions and collaborations are extensive, ensuring you graduate with in-demand technical knowledge, expertise and transferable skills. It may be possible for you to carry out your research project in industry. Throughout the course, you'll develop specialist skills that are attractive to a range of engineering industries, including aerospace, manufacturing, technical consultancy, accountancy, and utilities and transport.
