Aeronautical Engineering BEng (Hons) - Clearing

Aeronautical engineering is about how aircraft are designed, constructed and powered, how they are used and how they are controlled for safe operation.

WHY STUDY AERONAUTICAL ENGINEERING?

• Aeronautical group design projects are undertaken in collaboration with BAe Systems on a real aircraft project
• Students have access to State-of-the-Art experimental facilities which are part of the UK National Wind Tunnel Facility
• Final year students will undertake a six month placement in industry, an overseas university or within University of Glasgow research facilities
• Accredited by the Royal Aeronautical Society and the Institution of Mechanical Engineers
• You’ll take part in practical laboratories, including running a jet engine test, and a flight-testing course in a Jetstream aircraft during year 5 of the MEng
• We have several Engineering student societies, which include JetX, Design-Build-Fly and University of Glasgow Racing (UGR)
