Aerospace Engineering - BEng (Hons)

Coventry University

**Develop skills in designing and analysing aerospace systems through a course taught in Coventry, a city known for its historic role in aircraft manufacturing. You will have the opportunity to use specialist facilities and benefit from industry-informed teaching.**

Designed for those interested in the future of flight, this course combines theory and applied learning in aerospace engineering, helping you build the skills needed to prepare for roles in aviation, defence and emerging technologies.


- Study flight dynamics, propulsion, avionics and materials.


- Learn about technologies such as sustainable aviation and unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs).


- Benefit from pathways to upgrade from BEng (Hons) to MEng (subject to meeting progression requirements), allowing you allowing you to study at the postgraduate level while paying undergraduate tuition fees throughout.


**Why you should study this course**
- **Hands-on learning with industry-standard facilities**: gain practical experience using flight simulators, wind tunnels and real aircraft (including a Harrier Jump Jet), alongside advanced CFD and FEA software.


- **Strong industry connections and employability:** work on real-world projects from Airbus, Rolls-Royce and BAE Systems through in-class case studies. You may have the opportunity to apply for optional placements with other industry connections.


- **Future-focused curriculum**: study emerging technologies including sustainable aviation, hydrogen propulsion and UAVs, helping you understand developments shaping the future of aerospace engineering.


- **Global career opportunities:** boost your prospects with opportunities to apply for optional industry placements, internships and an optional study abroad year.


**What you'll study**
Gain the specialist knowledge to design, build and test next-generation aircraft and systems. Study key topics including aerodynamics, propulsion, structures, avionics and sustainability, while developing core engineering skills in maths, electronics and design.

Apply theory using industry-standard tools like computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and gain practical experience through labs, flight testing and a group-based systems integration project.
