BEng Aerospace Engineering, Astronautics & Space Technology
ObjectivesThese courses are ideal if you are interested in the design, construction and operation of aircraft but would like to extend your study of aerospace engineering beyond the atmosphere and up into space. Astronautics is the study of subjects related to the design, build and operation of space vehicles (satellites, probes and manned spaceships) for spacecraft and space missions. Both degrees are accredited by the Royal Aeronautical Society as leading to chartered engineer status.
Entry requirementsEntry requirements * a degree (level 6) in an Early Years subject or a degree (level 6) in any subject plus a level 3 qualification in an Early Years subject * a GCSE grade C in English and Maths * a current Criminal Records Bureau clearance * recent and considerable experience across whole 0-5 years age range
