Summary
Our MSc Engineering (Aeronautical) programme will enable you to develop a deep understanding and solid skills in applied aerodynamics and flight mechanics.
Aircraft aerodynamics and flying and handling performances are always the most important and challenging aspects of aircraft designs, particularly with the consideration of advanced materials and advanced aircraft technologies.
- You will grasp detailed knowledge and critically analyse aircraft flight dynamic behaviour and apply modern control approaches for aircraft stability.
- You will have access to a state-of-the-art Merlin flight simulator for designing and testing your own aircraft.
- Learn and use cutting-edge design, analysis, and simulation software such as ANSYS.
- Wrexham Glyndwr University is located nearby to one of the largest aircraft companies in the world, Airbus.
- Close links with aviation industries, such as Rolls-Royce, Raytheon, and Magellan Aerospace.
Key Course Features
- Open door policy to meet with tutors
- Additional support provided through workshops
- Select from optional modules to enhance your curriculum pathway
- The programme is accredited with the IMechE, IET, & RAeS (subject to accreditation in 2023)
| Level | RQF Level 7 |
|---|---|
| Entry requirements | Normal entry requirements for full-time and part-time intake will be one: A. A Bachelor of Engineering Honours Degree, or other Bachelor Honours Degree, normally with an honour’s degree with at least a 2:2 classification or equivalent in an appropriate engineering discipline. Normally, the applicants who applied through entry points (b) and (c) will be required to attend an interview. This is not always possible, e.g., for overseas students, in which case the application form and ‘home’ tutor’s recommendations will be used to decide suitability; phone, internet and video conferencing may also be used. Places on the programmes will be offered based on applicants’ background qualifications and, where appropriate, experiences. Non-Standard entry criteria A. They have a non-graduate qualification that Wrexham University has deemed to be of a satisfactory standard for the purpose of postgraduate admission, and Irrespective of a candidate’s entry qualifications, the student must provide evidence to the satisfaction of the interview panel of his/her ability to complete academic work of the required standard to successfully complete the scheme of study proposed. |
