Aerospace Engineering MEng (Hons)UCAS Code: H421Programme Length: 4 years

Key Contact: Dr D DennisE: [email protected]

The MEng degree programme will enable youto become a Chartered Engineer. This premierprogramme is double-accredited (by the Royal Aeronautical Society and the Institute of Mechanical Engineers) and this four-yearMEng degree satisfies the academicrequirements for registration as a CharteredEngineer (CEng) and a European Engineer (Eur Ing).

PROGRAMME CONTENTThe MEng is designed to offer students a greater depth and breadth of specialistknowledge in the core aerospace subjects witha range of advanced modules in subjects suchas Configurational Aerodynamics, LightweightMaterials, Advanced Guidance Systems andManagement. In Years One to Three, you willessentially follow the same programme as theBEng (H425), studying topics such as Design,Aircraft Performance, Aeroengines, Avionicsand Aircraft Materials.

You will also attend a two-day flight test course in a Jetstream aircraft.

In Years Three and Four, students form intogroups to design and test an aircraft concept as well as undertaking research, potentiallydeveloping innovative concepts in their ownindividual project.

Years One and Two (H421)Students follow the same programme as BEng (H425).

Aerospace EngineeringUCAS Code: H425Programme length: 3 years


The main aerospace engineering topics youstudy include aerodynamics, aerostructures,flight dynamics and control, propulsionsystems, communications, avionics and aircraft materials. The programmes include atwo day flight test course in a Jetstream aircraft.

PROGRAMME CONTENTYear One includes an approved course inworkshop practices, icebreaker group projectsas well as a team project to design, build and flya small aircraft. Year Three offers you theopportunity to explore the flight characteristicsof the UH-60 Blackhawk and Lynx helicoptersin our advanced moving-base flight simulator as part of the Rotorcraft Flight module.

All students on the BEng streams undertake an individual project in their final year, providingthe opportunity to conduct research anddevelop innovative concepts in their preferredtechnical areas of interest.

Students enrolling in Year One on H401/H402will be required to follow an approved flighttraining schedule of at least 20 hours in order to reinforce the material taught in the PilotStudies 1 module in Year One. Students whowish to qualify for either a PPL or ATPL mustcomplete the stipulated in-flight training outsideof the degree programme.

The cost of this flying must be met by thecandidate together with the associated groundschool examination and appropriate air medicalcertificate fees. The pilot studies modules havebeen designed to help with preparations for theground school examinations, which again mustbe taken by the student outside of the degree.

All students must complete a programme of 20 hours flight training in the first year which currently costs around 3,500. This is inaddition to the normal University fees. Studentsmay then opt to extend that training to theminimum 35hrs for the NPPL or 45hrs requiredfor the JARPPL(A) and to take the JAA/CAAapproved examinations. The cost of doing this externally is approximately an additional2,000 for the NPPL and 3,000 for theJARPPL( A) and may be taken during either the first or second year of study.

Those wishing to then follow externally provided fATPL flight training will need tocomplete provided the JAR-PPL(A) prior to the commencement of second year. Theflight training must be paid for prior to trainingcommencing. If the student elects to obtain aPPL, the training must be paid for in two 50%instalments of the total training costs. Thosestudents who wish to take the fATPL flighttraining programme in Years Two and Three,should budget for a minimum cost of 35,000.

Whilst the degree programmes provide most of the theoretical knowledge required for both the JAR-PPL and ATPL together with a contributory element of flight trainingdescribed below, it will be necessary forstudents who wish to qualify for either licence to sit the appropriate external examinations and undertake additional flight training.

Although not part of the degree award, aschedule has been prepared so that studentsmay elect to undertake the additional training in a manner that minimises the impact on theavailable study time required for the degreeaward. Flight Training partner organisations at Liverpool John Lennon airport have beenchosen to provide the compulsory basic flight-training programme in Year One as well as the optional further flight training elements. In addition, students who wish to obtain thefrozen Air Transport Pilots Licence (fATPL) inorder to eventually become professional pilotsshould register with the Bristol Ground Schooldistance learning programme.

The Pilot Studies modules have been designedin consultation with this organisation to ensurethat the support given to those students thatelect to qualify for the fATPL is both appropriateand timely.

The broad objective is to develop a high level ofcompetency in the technical aspects of aviationthat is supported by practical experience. Itshould be understood that H401 and H402 are primarily engineering programmes in whichpilot training forms a supporting role.
