Aero-Mechanical Engineering

University of Strathclyde

Content

Aero-mechanical engineers develop expertise in aeronautical, aerospace, and mechanical engineering, working in fields as varied as wind energy, aviation, and space exploration.

The majority of the university's students follow five-year MEng courses. All students experience the same learning pace in the first two years and BEng students can, and often do, transfer to the MEng programme. The Aero-Mechanical courses diverge from the core earlier to develop specialist themes.

Studying MEng Aero-Mechanical Engineering you'll learn about: aerodynamics; flight and spaceflight mechanics; aero-propulsion systems; gas dynamics; computational fluid dynamics; materials for aerospace applications; aero-elasticity; lightweight structures.
