2-Term Pathway - Foundation Certificate for Science and Engineering - Continue to Master of Engineering (Honours) - Aerospace Engineering with Pilot Studies

This University of Liverpool MEng is designed to offer students a greater depth and breadth of specialist knowledge in the core aerospace subjects with a range of advanced Year Four modules, such as such as Advanced Aerodynamics; Advanced Aerostructures; Flight Handling Qualities; Advanced guidance systems and Enterprise Studies. Students are then able to demonstrate their knowledge and understanding in the Year 4 Capstone Design Project.

Year One students study core engineering modules such as Structures; Fluid Mechanics; Thermodynamics; Materials; Maths; Electronics and Management. The Pilot Studies module provides a first insight into this exciting career. This, alongside general engineering skills such as technical drawing and communication, is reinforced throughout the year via a ‘design-build-test’ project where students are required to demonstrate their learning by creating an unmanned glider aircraft for use in a humanitarian mission. The pilot studies module (based on the PPL ground school syllabus) complements the flight training programme of 20 hours which is mandatory.
