Aerospace Engineering at Nottingham Trent University - UCAS

Course summary

Among the fastest-growing industries in the UK, aeronautical and aerospace engineering offers a range of career prospects in research and development, testing, and maintenance. So we’ll train you up in everything you need to know, looking outside of traditional aerospace boundaries, and focusing on the future flight where you’ll explore novel propulsion and drone technology. Sustainability is a particularly pertinent issue for engineers as many products are designed to have short life-span. That’s why we teach you sustainable design which facilitates the re-use, re-purposing or recycling of materials and components – it’s the focus of one of your first year projects and we have a whole module dedicated to it in your final years. You’ll be learning from the best, with our expert lecturers and researcher who have extensive aerospace industry experience. Additionally, you will work on live industry projects and hear from guest speakers, both on campus and on company visits, to gain the latest knowledge of trends and techniques. Recognised by Industry This course is recognised by CDIO, a framework that has a project based learning approach. This framework stresses engineering fundamentals set in the context of Conceiving — Designing — Implementing — Operating (CDIO) real-world systems and products. The framework is dedicated to providing students with their initial grounding in engineering through live projects.

Entry requirements

Qualification requirements

A lower offer may be made based on a range of factors, including your background (such as where you live and the school or college you attended), your experiences and individual circumstances (you may have been in care, for example). This is called a contextual offer and we get data from UCAS to make these decisions. NTU offers a student experience like no other, and this approach helps us to find students who have the potential to succeed here, but may have faced barriers that can make it more difficult to access university. We also consider equivalent qualifications and combinations. Please contact Nottingham Trent University Admissions team for further information.
