Objectives
This course is the same as our standard four-year MEng course with an additional year working in an aerospace engineering company. This industrial experience will put your academic studies into context and improve your skills and employability, preparing you for career as a graduate engineer. After the year in industry, you will return to the University to complete the final year of your course.
