  Programme description
  
  Aerospace engineering has come a long way since the Wright brothers first succeeded in powered flight in 1903. The subject has evolved and diversified, ranging in topics from aerodynamics to flight control, from space engineering to simulation and design, requiring engineers to have the ability to operate and develop advanced devices that are based on complex theoretical and computational models.
  
  
  Programme outline
  
  The programme includes two core modules, six option modules and a research project.
  
  Core modules:
  
      * Mechanics of Continua
      * Research Methods and Experimental Techniques
      * Research Project (four modules)
  
  Recommended modules may include:
  
      * Advanced Flight Control and Simulation of Aerospace Vehicles
      * Principles of Spacecraft Design
      * Space Missions Engineering
      * Computational Methods for Aerospace Fluid Dynamics and Acoustics
      * Advanced Topics in Aerodynamic
      * Aeroelasticity
  
  Option modules may include:
  
      * Advanced Flight Control and Simulation of Aerospace
      * Vehicles
      * Principles of Spacecraft Design
      * Space Missions Engineering
      * Computational Methods for Aerospace Fluid Dynamics and Acoustics
      * Advanced Topics in Aerodynamic
      * Aeroelasticity
      * Vehicular Crashworthiness
      * Computational Engineering
      * Combustion Concepts and Modelling
      * Robotics
  
  Assessment
  
  The methods of assessment include coursework and formal examinations. Many modules will include continuous assessment and some or all of the work during the course will count towards the final mark. The Research Project will be conducted under close supervision during the summer term and is evaluated by thesis, presentation and viva examination.
