Course Description
A programme for ambitious students who want to combine the numerical, analytical and design skills of engineering with an in-depth understanding of business.
Taught jointly by the Schools of Engineering and Materials Science and Business Management, this programme draws on the strengths of each to help you develop both engineering expertise and business acumen. The business modules are designed specifially for this programme, and you will be taught alongside other mathematicians, engineers and scientists.
In the first year you’ll take specialist engineering modules, while learning the fundamentals of finance and business management. In the second and third years you will choose modules from a wide range of aerospace engineering subfields and expand your knowledge of business strategy, analytics and entrepreneurship.
In the final year you’ll undertake an individual lab-based project linked to the current internationally recognised research taking place in the School, applying the theory you’ve learnt in the first two years of study.
Course Content
You can complete your Aerospace Engineering with Management degree in three or four years. If you choose to do a year in industry or study abroad, this will take place in Year 3, and Year 3 modules will instead be studied in Year 4.
YEAR 1
You will study a range of core engineering and management principles including:
- Business analytics
- Computer aided engineering
- Economics for Business
- Mathematics and computing
- Mechanics covering dynamics, statics, solids and fluids
- Thermodynamics
YEAR 2
You will cover the following specialist topics:
- Business Analytics
- Design for Manufacture
- Engineering Instrumentation
- Exploring Aerospace Engineering
- Vector Calculus for Engineering
- Project Management
- Thermodynamics
YEAR 3
In the third year, students undertake an individual research project alongside six taught modules. This provides an opportunity for students to get involved with the exciting research taking place in the School. The project allows students to apply the skills and techniques learnt from previous years’ studies and to focus on an area that particularly interests them.
Module topics include:
- Aerothermodynamics of Fluid Flows
- Control Systems
- Strategy
- Aircraft Propulsion
- Aircraft Structure
- Stability and Control of Aircraft
- The Management of Human Resources
Entry Requirements
A-Level :- Grades AAB at A-Level. This must include A-Level Mathematics, and Physics or Chemistry. Excludes General Studies and Critical Thinking.
IB :- International Baccalaureate Diploma with a minimum of 34 points overall, including 6,6,5 from three Higher Level subjects. This must include Mathematics at Higher Level, and either Physics or Chemistry, also at Higher Level.
BTEC :- See our detailed subject and grade requirements.
Access HE :- We consider applications from students with the Access to Higher Education Diploma in a Physics and Mathematics based discipline. Entry will normally be to the BEng or BSc. The minimum academic requirement is to achieve 60 credits overall, with 45 credits at Level 3, of which 33 credits must be at Distinction and 12 credits at Merit or higher. Applications are considered on a case by case basis. Before a decision is made, applicants will be invited to a Maths test at Queen Mary, normally in April. This Maths test will assess whether an applicants ability in Maths is at the required level. Applicants will be contacted shortly after the test with a decision on their application.
GCSE :- Minimum five GCSE passes including English at grade C or 4.
EPQ :- Alternative offers may be made to applicants taking the Extended Project Qualification. For further information please visit: qmul.ac.uk/undergraduate/entry/epq
Contextualised admissions :- We consider every application on its individual merits and will take into consideration your individual educational experiences and context. More information on how academic schools and programmes use this information as part of the admissions process, can be found on our contextualised admissions pages.
Assessment Methods
Assessment typically includes a combination of coursework, written reports, projects, presentations, group work and exams in the summer.
