MEng(hons) Aeronautical engineering
Aeronautical engineering is the application of scientific and technological methods to research, design, develop, maintain, and performance test both civil and military aircraft. As the race to take flight further escalates, now is an exciting time to consider a career in aeronautics.
Salford is a leading regional UK centre for aeronautics. Creating a gateway to professional status, our integrated masters Aeronautical Engineering degree course is designed to meet the requirements of the Engineering Councils Accreditation of Higher Education Programmes (AHEP). With a focus on real-world problem-solving, you'll explore how to improve fuel efficiency, ensure flight safety and apply using technology to take flight even further.
Our Aeronautical Engineering courses scored 91% for learning resources in the National Student Survey 2020 (University of Salford analysis of unpublished NSS 2020 data)
You will:
- Explore elements of aircraft design, including aircraft structures, flight systems, navigation, aerodynamics and performance
- Assess aircraft performance by modelling aerodynamic loads and propulsion system performance, leading to key results in both steady and accelerated flight
- Complete a flight test course using the Cranfield National Flying Laboratory Centre
- Choose to take an industry placement year to increase your professional aviation and aeronautics skills
- Expand your professional knowledge beyond Bachelor's level, with the opportunity to study specialist modules
