MEng Mechanical Engineering / Aerospace Engineering
We've changed some parts of this course for the 2020 to 2021 academic year due to coronavirus (COVID-19). These changes may affect how we'll teach you and which modules you'll take.
Explore the specialist engineering and aerospace systems that keep planes in the air. Take advanced modules that specialise in wing design, propulsion and manufacturing. Southampton has offered aerospace engineering degrees since the 1930s, and many of our graduates go on to successful careers in the space industry, aerospace or defence sector.
Along with the core topics of mechanical engineering, this degree focuses on:
aircraft aerodynamics
propulsion
avionics
structural design
You'll use our design workshops and studios, and gain practical experience in aircraft and spacecraft engineering, for a variety of projects.
As part of this course you can:
study management and design to improve your employability
showcase your work in our annual Engineering Design Show
visit industry and research establishments for a real-world view of possible careers
We're a designated university for the Defence Technical Undergraduate Scheme (DTUS).
Enhance your employability by taking this course with a paid industrial placement year.
Apply using:
You'll spend this extra year at an engineering firm, applying the skills and knowledge you've learned so far.
The fee is 20% of the standard annual tuition fee.
