BEng Hons. Aerospace Engineering

The BEng Aerospace Engineering Undergraduate Course at the University of Hertfordshire is a course that provides students with the academic knowledge and practical skills needed in the aerospace industry. This degree integrates understanding of the aerospace industry with the training in solid and fluid mechanics, materials, automatic control, design, and manufacture.Course Content: The course's content incorporates project work—ranging from computer simulation to the design and construction of a remote-controlled aircraft, materials engineering, solid mechanics and dynamics, engineering applications of aerodynamics, aerospace systems, design for aerospace, aerospace propulsion and environmental issues in aerospace.Key Modules: Some of the key modules students will undertake during the course include Mathematics, Engineering Science, Fluid Mechanics and Thermodynamics, Guided Weapon Systems, Advanced Aerodynamics, Aeroelasticity and Aircraft Performance, Aerospace Structural Analysis and Materials, and Professional Techniques.Accreditations: This course is accredited by the Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET) on behalf of the Engineering Council as meeting the requirements for further learning for registration as an incorporated engineer. Candidates must hold a CEng accredited BEng/BSc (Hons) undergraduate first degree to comply with full CEng registration requirements.Future Careers: Graduates of this program are equipped for a range of careers within the aerospace industry, including design, production, and operation of vehicles and structures. Specific roles might include aero engine designer, stress engineer, or flight test engineer. You could work for major world-class companies like Airbus UK, Lockheed Martin, BAE Systems, Rolls-Royce, or MBDA Missile Systems.For more information on this course, please visit the official course page.
