Aerospace Engineering, MEng (Hons), with study abroad

An Aerospace Engineering degree at Swansea University provides comprehensive training in the theory and operation of aeronautical vehicles, including jets, propellers, gliders, and helicopters. Students explore the full engineering process, from conceptual design to in-flight handling, with a multidisciplinary approach that delves into planetary atmospheres, space exploration, and supporting technologies. Key facilities include flight simulators, an 18-metre wind tunnel, a JetCat P120 engine, and advanced aerodynamic software. Practical experiences encompass simulator training, flying lessons at a local airport, and a flight test course on aircraft performance using a Jetstream twin turboprop.The curriculum covers essential modules across years, such as dynamics, aerodynamics, and propulsion in early stages, progressing to advanced topics like flight dynamics and fluid-structure interaction in later years. The programme is accredited by professional bodies including the Institution of Mechanical Engineers and the Royal Aeronautical Society, ensuring industry recognition.
