Space still remains largely unexplored and there is always the possibility of making new discoveries. The field of astronautics and space engineering have driven the development of many new technologies, such as GPS, satellite communications, and weather forecasting. Although the space sector contributes significantly to the economy, it still represents a vast market with untapped potential for development and commercialisation.
There is a continuing need for talented employees with a good understanding of spacecraft systems engineering, coupled with a broad range of technical skills. Evolving constantly since 1987, the MSc in Astronautics and Space Engineering has consistently prepared graduates for highly successful careers in the space sector, from earth observation to planetary exploration, launch vehicles to spacecraft operations, and much more.
Who is it for?
The MSc is suitable for students with a first or second class UK honours degree or equivalent, in mathematics, physics or an engineering discipline. Students from other sciences, mathematics, or computing backgrounds are welcome to apply. We also offer a part time route for students looking to remain in employment while studying.
