Course Description

The MEng Aerospace Engineering with Management will provide you with a broad, well-balanced preparation for a professional career in the aerospace industry, with a specialism in management.

As a graduate from the University of Manchester, you'll also gain skills useful for work in other areas, such as an understanding of design, comprehension of the commercial world and competence in transferable skills (problem solving, team working, creativity and IT). You'll be taught using interactive learning approaches and using cutting-edge and industry-standard tools.

The final year combines engineering science taught in previous years into multi-faceted, commercially-realistic projects allowing you to demonstrate your applied skills in addition to your technical skills. Additional specialist units will allow you to focus on advanced topics taught by world-leading researchers.

As well as all this, specialist management focused units enable you to plan large engineering projects in addition to developing your technical skills.

And the degree also provides an excellent route for you should you wish to proceed to further postgraduate research.
