Meng Aerospace Engineering with an Industrial Placement Year

The Aerospace Engineering with Industrial Placement Year MEng at the University of Sheffield is designed to provide students with a comprehensive understanding of the fundamental principles of aerospace engineering. It is a four-year course that combines core theoretical studies with practical professional experience. An industrial placement year encourages students to develop real-world problem-solving skills and an in-depth understanding of the latest industry-focused research.Course Content: The course includes theoretical and practical studies in engineering, mathematics, and materials science. Students will study core aerospace topics such as flight mechanics, aerospace materials, avionic systems, and aerodynamics, as well as gain an understanding of professional engineering practice. Key Modules: Key modules include Structural Analysis and Materials Science, Thermofluids and Structural Mechanics, Aerospace Avionics, Dynamic Systems and Control, and Turbo-Machine and Propulsion Systems. The fourth year includes options for specialist study ranging from advanced control systems to space vehicle dynamics.Accreditations: The MEng in Aerospace Engineering is accredited by the Royal Aeronautical Society (RAeS) and the Institution of Mechanical Engineers (IMechE) on behalf of the Engineering Council for the purposes of fully meeting the academic requirement for registration as a Chartered Engineer.Future Careers: Graduates from this course can expect to find employment in sectors such as aerospace design, spacecraft manufacturing, and defense engineering. Potential roles include design and systems engineers, project managers, and aerospace consultants. Graduates may also choose to pursue further study or research in the aerospace sector.For more information on this course, please visit the official course page.
