Postgraduate study
MSc in Aerial Robotics
This MSc will give you the knowledge required to become an innovator in aerial robotic systems and tackle the latest challenges for UAVs or drones, including flight dynamics, control and avionics.
Flight testing may be carried out at one of our world-class facilities including an indoor flight arena at the Bristol Robotics Laboratory or the outdoor flying site at Fenswood, Long Ashton.
MSc Advanced Composites
Taught programme
This MSc provides an in-depth theoretical understanding and practical knowledge of advanced composite materials. It is based in the Advanced Composites Centre for Innovation and Science (ACCIS), one of the world's leading centres in composite materials, which houses a number of state-of-the-art manufacturing facilities.
PhD / MSc by research Aerospace Engineering
Research programme
The department's research is organised via cross-faculty research groups. In Aerospace Engineering there are three major interest groups: fluid flow and aerodynamics; Advanced Composites Centre for Innovation and Science (ACCIS); dynamics and control.
