Year 1

All engineers require an excellent knowledge of basic engineering principles, which is why 75% of our first year is common for all our subjects.

Degrees in Aerospace, General and Mechanical Engineering share the exact same first year. This means that you can switch between any of these degrees before your second year.

Modules

• Electrical and Electronic Engineering

• Engineering Design and Experimentation

• Engineering Mathematics 1

• Engineering Mathematics 2

• Mechanical Engineering

This is the same as the first year of the MEng.

Modules shown represent choices available to current students. The range of modules available and the content of any individual module may change in future years.

Year 2

In your second year you will begin to specialise in the field of aerospace engineering while continuing to develop fundamental engineering principles. You will also take an integrated design project in which you will work in a team with students from other engineering disciplines – vital experience for the modern world of engineering.

Modules

• Materials and Structures

• Dynamics and Thermofluids

• Aircraft Performance and Navigation

• Aerodynamics and Aircraft Systems

• Engineering Experimentation and Analysis

• Integrated Engineering Design

• System Dynamics and Control

This is the same as the second year of the MEng.

If you achieve at least 55% in your second year you can, if you wish, transfer to the MEng.

Year in Industry or Abroad (optional)

• If you want to, you can spend your third year studying abroad at one of our partner institutions or working in an industrial placement (eligibility is dependent on your academic performance in Years 1 and 2). Alternatively, you can opt to continue studying at the University and complete your degree in three years.

• NB. A year spent abroad or on an industrial placement still incurs a tuition fee, but this is much lower than for a normal year at Leicester. See our Fees and Funding section for details.

Spend a year abroad

The School of Engineering at Leicester has links with several universities outside Europe. If you are receiving financial assistance from Student Finance your support will continue and you may also be eligible to apply for additional travel grants or scholarships. We have links with the following universities:

• Clarkson University, New York, USA

• Oklahoma State University, Oklahoma USA

• University of Tulsa, Oklahoma USA

• Swinburne University of Technology, Victoria, Australia

• While studying in the USA or Australia, you will have a personal tutor there and also a tutor back at Leicester to look after you and answer queries. You will be expected to maintain a good academic performance whilst at the partner institution and will take their exams.
• Studying abroad is not just for people who are interested in travelling and meeting new people. It is about acquiring life skills that are becoming increasingly significant for a wide range of jobs in our modern globalised society. Whether you go on to work in the private sector, the state sector, a non-governmental organisation or are self-employed you will find the experience invaluable. Find out more from our Study Abroad Unit. 

Spend a year working

• If you choose a 'With Industry’ degree you will spend a year on an industrial placement with a sponsoring company between your second and third years at Leicester. You will undertake a programme of training and practical experience that is agreed between the sponsoring company and the University. Recent placements have included: Rolls-Royce, Force India F1 Team, Ford Motors, Intel UK, Network Rail, Porsche Engineering Services, Aero Engine Controls, Babcock International, Auto Electrical Services and Jaguar Land Rover.
• A member of staff will be individually assigned to you as your industrial placement tutor, who will be in contact with you throughout your placement and will visit the sponsoring company. During the year you will return to Leicester to present details of your placement to other students studying for 'With industry' degrees.

A year in industry is a great opportunity which can give you first-hand experience of working in an engineering-related career while also enhancing your employability skills and allowing you to network with people in industry.

Final Year

In your third year (or fourth year if you take a year out) you have the opportunity to specialise in different aspects of aerospace engineering through a number of optional modules. Your individual project is a significant part of this year, giving you the opportunity to investigate a specific aerospace engineering concept or challenge.

Modules

• Engineering Management

• Finite Element Analysis and Design

• Compressible and Applied Aerodynamics

• State Variable Control

Plus two option modules (including at least one marked *) from:

• Flight Dynamics, Control and Avionics *

• Aerospace Materials and Structures*

• Digital Control and Actuators

• Rigid Body and Structural Dynamics

Plus your Individual Project

This is the same as the third year of the MEng.
