Master of Engineering in Aeronautics & Astronautics (2+2)

Aeronautics and Astronautics covers advanced aeronautics and space applications, preparing you to design future aircraft, race cars, jet engines, satellites and rockets. In your first two years, you will gain a solid foundation in aerospace engineering such as aerodynamics, astronautics and propulsion along with a wider appreciation of the economic, legal and environmental issues associated with aircraft operations and aircraft performance.

In your final two years you can choose from a broad range of subjects, including modern languages.
