BEng Aeromechanical Engineering
About this course
The BEng (Hons) Aeromechanical Engineering is an undergraduate mechanical engineering degree focusing on the design and analysis of aircraft, propulsion systems, and aerospace technologies. Core topics include Programming, Signal Processing, Control Systems, Data Analysis, Research Methods, Engineering Design, and Critical & Analytical Thinking. Students may optionally undertake a professional placement year in industry or spend a year studying abroad at a partner institution. The first year establishes core fundamentals through modules such as Computing and Programming for Engineers, Design Challenge for Engineers, Electrical and Electronic Technology, Engineering Mechanics, Materials and Methods of Manufacture, Mathematical Skills for Engineers, and Thermofluids. The second year advances technical knowledge via Advanced Thermofluids, Applied Dynamics and Vibrations, Control Systems, Data Modelling and Simulation, Innovation Project, and Solid Body Mechanics. In the final year, students complete an Individual Project (Bachelors) alongside advanced compulsory study in Signal Processing and System Identification. Optional modules allow students to further specialise in areas such as Computational Fluid Dynamics, Finite Element Analysis, Robotics and Automation, and State-Space Control.
