Embark on a dynamic career path with the MEng Aerospace Engineering with Pilot Studies at the University of Central Lancashire. This comprehensive undergraduate degree is designed for aspiring engineers who are passionate about aviation and seek to combine rigorous technical training with the foundational knowledge required for a pilot's license. You will explore core aerospace disciplines such as aerodynamics, propulsion, and structural analysis, alongside the theoretical principles of Private Pilot License (PPL) and Airline Transport Pilot License (ATPL) studies. This course offers a unique pathway for students aiming to excel in the aerospace industry, whether in engineering roles or as commercial pilots.
This full-time, on-campus programme is studied over four years, providing an immersive learning experience. You will engage with advanced topics including aerospace vehicle systems, design, manufacturing, and flight dynamics, utilising state-of-the-art facilities like wind tunnels and flight simulators. In Year 2, you will begin your PPL theoretical studies, and in Year 4, you will be introduced to ATPL theory, preparing you for professional examinations. You will have the opportunity to undertake a significant group project in your final year, culminating in a comprehensive engineering solution. Graduates will possess the technical acumen and theoretical understanding to pursue diverse careers in aerospace engineering and aviation.
