Overview

This degree combines practical learning and industry experience allowing you to develop a comprehensive understanding of the process involved in the design, manufacture and operation of aircraft within the Earth's atmosphere and in space. You will work on actual aircraft and aircraft components to measure structural, aerodynamic and flight characteristics. Practical simulation using wind tunnel technology and flight simulators is a component of the course.

You may apply to change your chosen Engineering stream after enrolment. Any change should be made as early as possible in the program to limit the need for catch-up work and to ensure satisfactory completion of the requirements for the new stream.
