Engineering (Aeronautical)

About this course

Aeronautical engineering is the discipline concerned with the design, construction, operation, and safety of aircraft and the systems that support them. It brings together aerodynamics, structural mechanics, propulsion, materials science, avionics, and control systems engineering, demanding a rigorous foundation in mathematics and physics alongside the systems thinking to integrate these components into complete, safe, and efficient flying machines. It is one of the most technically demanding engineering disciplines, and one with some of the most exacting safety and performance standards of any industry. At the University of Durham, this four-year full-time MEng programme includes a sandwich placement year, a year abroad, and a work placement, giving you structured professional and international experience alongside the academic programme.
