Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) - Avionic Systems with a Year in Industry (H432)

The programme starts by giving students a basic grounding in all of the necessary technical subjects in Year One, with modules in electrical circuits and systems, digital electronics, mathematics and an introduction to aerospace engineering (which covers the principles of flight and terminology of aerospace engineering).

In Year Two, avionics is introduced through a dedicated module which covers everything from radar cross-sections of ‘stealth’ aircraft to airborne navigation using the Global Positioning System. Year Two also includes modules in instrumentation (covering the electrical devices that are used to monitor and control the flight of aircraft) and other relevant subjects.

Year Three is the placement year during which students will spend time working in an engineering company. In Year Four students undertake an extended individual project in the area of Avionics.

Throughout the programme, there is a strong multidisciplinary flavour to the subjects being studied, with common elements shared by mainstream aerospace engineering students and electrical engineers. However, the Avionics programme offers a range of avionics modules that will provide students with greater in-depth technical knowledge than is offered by either of the mainstream subject areas.
