COURSE CURRICULUM

The Master of Professional Engineering (Aerospace Engineering) is designed to develop advanced technical expertise and professional engineering skills required to work in the aerospace and high-performance engineering industries. The program provides a strong foundation in core engineering principles such as fluid mechanics, engineering dynamics, thermodynamics, mechanics of solids, and materials science, which are essential for understanding aircraft and spacecraft systems. As students progress, they specialise in aerospace-focused areas including aerodynamics, propulsion, flight mechanics, aerospace structures, and aircraft design, enabling them to analyse and develop complex aerospace systems. The course also integrates professional engineering units that build skills in sustainable design, engineering ethics, communication, leadership, and project management, ensuring graduates are prepared for collaborative and multidisciplinary industry environments. Practical learning is strengthened through engineering computing, system dynamics, and hands-on design projects that simulate real aerospace challenges. The program includes capstone research projects and practical experience, allowing students to apply theoretical knowledge to real-world aerospace problems and innovation-driven solutions. It is suitable for engineering graduates seeking accreditation and specialisation in aerospace engineering. Graduates are well prepared for careers in aviation, defence, space industries, and advanced manufacturing, with strong global opportunities in research, design, testing, and systems engineering.
