Aeronautics and Astronautics brings together advanced engineering across a range of disciplines with applications in air vehicle specification, design, and construction.
Students undertake Years 1 and 2 at the University of Southampton Malaysia and Years 3 and 4 at the UK campus.
Introducing your degree
These integrated master’s programme gives you the opportunity to study a more extensive range of aerospace subjects at advanced level than the BEng course. In your first two years, you will gain a solid foundation in aerospace engineering such as aerodynamics, astronautics and propulsion along with a wider appreciation of the economic, legal and environmental issues associated with aircraft operations and aircraft performance. In your final two years you can choose from a broad range of subjects, including modern languages.
Accreditation
Our aeronautics and astronautics courses are accredited by the Institution of Mechanical Engineers and the Royal Aeronautical Society and offer you a route to chartered status.
The MEng Aeronautics and Astronautics fully meets the academic requirement for registration as a Chartered Engineer.
Programme Structure
The University uses the European Credit Transfer Scheme (ECTS) to indicate the approximate amount of time a typical student can expect to spend in order to complete successfully a given module or programme. 1 ECTS indicates around 20 nominal hours of study. Previously, Credit Accumulation and Transfer Scheme (CATS) points were used for this purpose where 1 CATS credit was 10 nominal hours of study. You will study modules comprising 120 credits (60 ECTS) for all four years. Each module is a self-contained part of the programme of study and carries a credit rating.
Career Opportunities:
University of Southampton degrees are highly valued by employers and studying at both our Malaysia and Southampton Campuses will equip you with the skills to operate globally.
Our Aeronautics and Astronautics degrees open a wide range of exciting career opportunities. Previous graduate jobs have included aerospace engineer, pilot, race car designer, IT and management consultant, software, and systems engineer, as well as roles in research and postgraduate study.
Organisations employing our Aeronautics and Astronautics graduates include Airbus, Dstl, Dyson, European Space Agency, Jaguar Land Rover, Mercedes-AMG Petronas Motorsport, Rolls-Royce, Surrey Satellite Technology and UK Space Agency.
Among our many successful Aeronautics and Astronautics graduates is Adrian Newey, who has worked as an F1 designer for Williams and McLaren and is now the chief technical officer of Red Bull F1 racing team. Top motor racing teams look to Southampton for the best new aerodynamics talent for the future.
Computational Engineering Design
Discover how to use computers to help model and optimise aeronautic and astronautic designs. You'll learn how to research and solve new aerospace challenges, with a focus on computational methods.
This pathway will focus on computational engineering, which is a core skill to help aerospace engineers optimise their designs.
