Aeronautical Engineering (Including Foundation Year) University of South Wales

If you don't have the right grades to enrol directly on to our BEng (Hons) Aeronautical Engineering degree, you could opt to start your studies with a foundation year. The extra year is intended to give you the best possible preparation for success on the degree pathway. You'll study introductory modules relevant to the degree course whilst developing key skills for academic study.

The BEng (Hons) Aeronautical Engineering programme was developed in close consultation with industry professional bodies, including and the Royal Aeronautical Society (RAeS) and the Institution of Mechanical Engineers (IMechE) to boost your employability.

You'll study the engineering principles needed for a career in the aerospace industry, and you'll gain practical experience on campus in our state-of-the-art Aerospace Centre. Weather permitting, you'll also take to the skies with flight test lessons in your final year.
