**Please check the Sheffield Hallam University website for the latest information.** **Course summary** - Develop state-of-the-art scientific knowledge in aerospace engineering. - Gain the practical skills to solve complex future aerospace challenges. - Engage in live projects, numerical modelling and experimental techniques. - Address sustainability challenges like decarbonisation and FlyZero-2030. - Develop technology expertise in aviation and next-generation space missions. This course prepares you for diverse roles in aerospace research and development, manufacturing, product design, testing, modelling, simulating and other commercial engineering enterprises. You’ll engage in professional practice from day one, working on industry-led projects and addressing complex aerospace problems. If you don't meet the entry requirements for this course, or you’d like extra preparation before starting degree-level study, we recommend you join the foundation course. You could also consider our integrated Masters MEng course. With an extra year to develop specialist knowledge and enhance your research and project-management experience, you gain advanced technical and professional skills to increase your future job prospects. Or, as long as you meet the required academic standards, you could enrol on the BEng and swap to the MEng later. **How you learn** All our courses are designed around a set of key principles based on engaging you with the world, collaborating with others, challenging you to think in new ways, and providing you with a supportive environment in which you can thrive. On this course you’ll take an active, research-informed approach to learning, preparing for future aerospace challenges within a diverse student community. You’ll gain skills and confidence through state-of-the-art teaching techniques – such as flipped learning, think-pair-share, digital-technology aided teaching, online learning and a variety of activities.. You learn through: - Diverse lectures emphasising peer collaboration. - Tutorials to practise and apply your knowledge ahead of assessments. - Hands-on lab experience including computational modelling and simulation. - Q&A and discussions for self-assessment and understanding. - Support sessions for receiving feedback and preparing for assessments. - Teamwork activities for collaboration in an innovative environment. - Project-based learning to apply knowledge, creativity, design, critical analysis and professional skills to real-world projects. **Course topics** You’ll apply your learning to solve real-world problems across core subject areas – including aerodynamics, thermodynamics, structures, propulsion, flight dynamics and control, systems and avionics. You’ll also explore case studies within the aerospace industry – insightful examples of ongoing research and industry practice. Further themes of the course range from fluid mechanics and aerospace materials to aircraft design, numerical methods, modelling and simulation. Assessments on the course include exams, coursework, case studies, phase tests, viva presentations and portfolios, offering equal opportunities to demonstrate your learning and potential. **Course support** You’ll be supported in your learning journey towards highly skilled, graduate level employment. This includes:  - Access to our unique student support triangle to help with your personal, academic and career development. - Access to our Skills Centre with one-on-ones, webinars and online resources, where you can get help with planning and structuring your assignments. - The Engineering Café, a weekly drop-in session where you can ask questions and get advice from academics. - A dedicated Maths and Stats Support drop-in session that runs twice a week. **Applied learning** **Work placements** You’ll have the opportunity to undertake a year-long work placement between your second and third years.
