MSc Aerospace Engineering (With Advanced Practice)

  • DeadlineStudy Details:

    MSc Full Time: September enrolment: 20 months, including a summer break; January enrolment: 2 years, including two summer breaks.

Course Description

This MSc programme offers you an advanced level of study in specific aspects of aerospace engineering which is in continuous demand from industry.

You develop knowledge and key skills in advanced aerospace structures, advanced fluid dynamics, finite element methods, research and enterprise, space mission analysis and trajectory design, and supply chain management.

You have access to our flight simulator, wind tunnel, materials and manufacturing labs, structural test labs and electron microscope. You also learn how to use industry-standard software such as the General Mission Analysis Tool (GMAT), NASA’s open source software. The General Mission Analysis Tool (GMAT) is the world’s only enterprise, multi-mission, open source software system for space mission design, optimisation, and navigation. The system supports missions’ in-flight regimes ranging from low Earth orbit to lunar, libration point, and deep space missions.

The one-year programme is a great option if you want to gain a traditional MSc qualification. The two-year master’s degree with advanced practice enhances your qualification by adding a vocational or research based internship to the one-year master’s programme. A vocational internship is a great way to gain work experience and give your CV a competitive edge. A research internship provides you with the opportunity to develop your analytical, team-working, research and academic skills by working alongside a research team in an academic setting. We guarantee a research internship, but cannot guarantee a vocational internship. We will, however, provide you with practical support and advice on how to find and secure your own vocational internship position should you prefer this type of internship.

Entry Requirements

You need a first degree in aerospace engineering or relevant engineering discipline equivalent to at least a UK second class (2.2) honours degree. Relevant engineering disciplines includes aerospace, aeronautical, mechanical, and mechanical systems.

Students with a degree awarded outside the UK must also meet the University’s minimum English language requirements

.Non-EU international students who need a student visa to study in the UK should check our web pages on UKVI-compliant English language requirements.
