About this course

At NTU, we are developing Aerospace Engineers who are ready to solve practical engineering problems facing the aerospace industry. Aeronautical and aerospace engineering is one of the fastest growing industries in the UK. You’ll leave us well equipped to face today’s challenges and, as we focus on the future of flight, you’ll be ready for the industries next big challenges.

Sustainability is a particularly pertinent issue for engineers as many products are designed to have short life-span. That’s why we teach you sustainable design which facilitates the re-use, re-purposing or recycling of materials and components – it’s the focus of one of your first year projects and we have a whole module dedicated to it in your final years.

You’ll be learning from the best, with our expert lecturers and researcher who have extensive aerospace industry experience. Additionally, you will work on live industry projects and hear from guest speakers, both on campus and on company visits, to gain the latest knowledge of trends and techniques.

Recognised by Industry This course is recognised by CDIO, a framework that has a project based learning approach. This framework stresses engineering fundamentals set in the context of Conceiving — Designing — Implementing — Operating (CDIO) real-world systems and products. The framework is dedicated to providing students with their initial grounding in engineering through live projects.
