Students develop flight assimilation and air navigation skills in specifically designed subject modules and through the use of the University's fixed and moving base flight simulators; programme covers practical issues of aircraft in-flight performance and dynamic behaviour, using in-flight measurements as source material, and links these to principles taught in the classroom; aircraft design is treated in parallel with a full treatment of fundamental and advanced aeronautical science; students undertake experimental and project work throughout the programme, including a significant personal project in the final year.

Course combines the practical and theoretical aspects of flying with the underlying principles of aircraft engineering; students follow a structured pilot training programme and sit the appropriate ground school examinations needed for the award of a Private Pilot Licence; a total of 45 flying hours is included within the training programme, with the twin aims of enabling students to fly solo by the end of Level 1 and to obtain a Private Pilot Licence by the end of Level 2; the optional sandwich year may be spent on industrial placement in a range of manufacturing companies, typically involving aerospace industries, in the UK or in certain countries in Europe.
