Bachelor of Engineering - Aerospace Engineering at Brunel University London: Tuition: £19,855.00 GBP/year (Scholarship Available)

Brunel's Aerospace Engineering BEng degree is an exciting, hands-on specialist course that has been developed to equip students with the knowledge and understanding to meet the real world needs of the global aerospace industry.

Students will be introduced to fundamental engineering subjects such as structures, materials, fluids, and maths, and gain skills in technical drawing. They will then learn about the principles of aircraft design and progress to specialist subjects such as propulsion systems, and flight testing and analysis.

Students will have access to a range of technical facilities including Brunel's aerospace/aviation laboratory, full-motion engineering flight simulator, supersonic and subsonic wind tunnels, materials and structure testing laboratory, and 3D printing in the digital fabrication workshop. Industry standard specialist software for aircraft design is available to students 24 hours a day in high-performance computing clusters.

At Brunel, students will benefit from guest lectures delivered by industry professionals who present a valuable insight into current, challenging topics in the field of aerospace. There are also planned visits to engineering and manufacturing companies where students will see first-hand the latest breakthroughs in development and technology for future aerospace systems. In addition, students have the advantage of Brunel’s close location to London’s Heathrow Airport for site visits as well as project opportunities, and placement and employment options.

This BEng aerospace engineering course is accredited by both the Royal Aeronautical Society (RAeS) and the Institution of Mechanical Engineers (IMechE). These professional bodies ensure that graduates' engineering degree meets the academic requirement to qualify as a professional engineer. This accredited BEng degree in aerospace engineering can be studied full-time over three years, or four years with a placement year. The BEng degree meets the educational requirement to become an Incorporated Engineer (IEng). Students may wish to transfer to the MEng route of study at the end of their second year, subject to meeting the progression requirement. The MEng degree fully meets the educational requirement to become a Chartered Engineer (CEng) and involves a further year of academic study.

Brunel encourages the placement year option. This time in industry helps students to further prepare for the world of work and they’ll have a year’s worth of invaluable professional experience when they graduate. If students decide to go on an engineering placement year, they will have the opportunity to work in the aerospace engineering sector.

As an extracurricular activity, there is the opportunity to be part of a student-led initiative involving the design and build of an unmanned aircraft vehicle and participating in the IMechE industry-sponsored UAS Challenge (Unmanned Aircraft Systems Challenge).
