Study Details: 12 months FT
This MSc will prepare you with the knowledge, skills and values needed for a career in the growing aerospace industry, with a particular emphasis on multidisciplinary aerospace technologies aimed at reducing environmental impact.
City, University of London is of the few universities in the UK that offers a combination of Green Aerospace Technologies and Advanced Manufacturing that are focused on the requirements, challenges and possible solutions of technologies that promote sustainability in aviation.
You will be able to specialise in the field of automation and autonomy in aircraft and ground systems by taking on specifically designed modules (Unmanned Aerial Vehicles). These topics have increasingly attained a higher profile in the aerospace industry over the last six years.
This Advanced Aerospace Engineering with Sustainable Technologies master’s degree is ideal for Engineering graduates or Aeronautical and Mechanical practitioners who are intending to broaden their knowledge and scope in enhancement and application of sustainable technologies in the aerospace sector.

The UK currently has the second largest aerospace industry in the world, employing around 230,000 people in over 3,000 companies, including BAE Systems, GKN Aerospace and Rolls-Royce.
A global skills shortage continues to ensure that aerospace engineers remain among the most in-demand professions in an industry where the average wages and salaries are 58% higher than the UK average.
The specialist topics studied on the programme are designed to prepare you for work in companies involved with aerospace engineering, but there are also many roles in related industries that rely on the same technology, such as the automotive industry.
Possible destinations could include the fields of Design, Research and Development, Operations and Management, Structural and Avionics Engineering.
You will study the theory and practice related to the analysis, design, and evaluation of Aerospace Engineering Systems and the underlying Technologies via 8 15-credits taught modules. Some of these include laboratory components and group-based projects.
The programme also includes a 60-credits individual project module where you will demonstrate original application of knowledge in the area.
Through the analysis, design, and evaluation of a concept related to systems engineering and its related technologies, or the critical evaluation and extension of the knowledge in the area through a research-led project, which can involve the development of a relevant software and/or hardware application.
