Aeronautical Engineering

About this course

Aeronautical engineering is the discipline that makes powered flight possible, encompassing the design, analysis, and manufacture of aircraft and the systems that enable them to operate safely and efficiently. It draws on fluid dynamics, structural mechanics, materials science, thermodynamics, and control systems to address the extraordinary engineering challenges involved in moving vehicles through the air at speed, under a wide range of conditions, and to very demanding safety standards. The field is at the forefront of efforts to make aviation more sustainable, developing new propulsion technologies, lightweight materials, and more efficient aerodynamic designs. At the University of Salford, you will develop the knowledge and skills to design, analyse, and understand aircraft as complete engineering systems over three years full-time. The programme combines strong theoretical foundat
