The MEng (Hons) Aircraft Engineering has been designed in partnership with the aerospace industry and will provide you with the skills required to work effectively in aircraft design, manufacturing, aerodynamic and structural design, and repair and overhaul sectors. Aircraft engineers are responsible for the safety of thousands of air passengers every year. They play a critical role in the design and certification of an air-worthy aircraft in accordance with aviation standards. Designed in partnership with aerospace industry employers, this course includes visits to organizations such as Spirit AeroSystems and British Airways. A number of final-year projects are also undertaken in collaboration with the industry.
Many international applicants (see exempt nationalities) are advised that they will need to obtain an Academic Technology Approval Scheme (ATAS) certificate before they can be considered for an unconditional offer of study on this undergraduate integrated master's course.
Entry Clearance Officers (ECO) will ask to see your ATAS certificate as part of your visa application process.
UK immigration law does not allow universities to permit international students to study for an ATAS-applicable course until the student has supplied the university with all the relevant ATAS certificate details for their application.
20 hours per week.
