If you want to follow an extended degree programme that will enable you to become a Chartered Engineer, this premier programme will be your choice. The double-accredited (by the Royal Aeronautical Society and the Institute of Mechanical Engineers) four-year MEng degree satisfies the academic requirements for registration as a Chartered Engineer (CEng) and a European Engineer (Eur Ing). The MEng is designed to offer students a greater depth and breadth of specialist knowledge in the core aerospace subjects with a range of advanced modules in subjects such as Configurational Aerodynamics, Lightweight Materials, Light Handling Qualities (where students design their own fixes to aircraft with flight handling difficulties), Advanced Guidance Systems and Management. In Years One to Three, you will study topics such as Design, Aerodynamics, Flight Dynamics and Control, Aeroengines, Aerostructures, Avionics and Aircraft Materials. You will also attend a three-day flight test course in a Jetstream aircraft. In Years Three and Four, students form into groups to design and test an aircraft concept as well as undertaking research, potentially developing innovative concepts in their own individual project. Why this subject? Be a modern engineer for the future. We are committed to developing the modern professional engineers for the future. We ensure that your learning environment reflects your future working environment.
