Course Overview

The Avionic Systems Design option aims to provide an understanding of avionic systems design, analysis, development, test, and airframe integration. This includes a detailed look at robust and fault-tolerant flight control, advanced 4D flight management and RNP navigation, self-separation, and collision avoidance, advanced digital data communications systems, pilot-friendly and intelligent cockpit displays, and situation awareness.

The course also covers future ATM systems, which have been at the forefront of postgraduate education in aerospace engineering since 1946. Aerospace Vehicle Design at Cranfield University was one of the original foundation courses of the College of Aeronautics. Graduates of this course are eligible to join the Cranfield College of Aeronautics Alumni Association (CAA). This active community holds several networking and social events throughout the year.

You can fly during a Student Experience Flight in our National Flying Laboratory Centre’s (NFLC) light aircraft. This flight experience will complement your MSc studies, focusing on the effects of controls, aircraft stability, and angle of attack. During the flight, you will have the opportunity to take control of the aircraft. Each experience is 2 to 3 hours long and includes a pre-flight safety briefing outlining the details of the maneuvers to be flown, a flight of approximately 1 hour, and a post-flight debrief. Read Hari's blog on his flight experience.

Cranfield University is well located for students from all over the world and offers a range of library and support facilities to support your studies. This enables students from all over the world to complete this qualification while balancing work/life commitments. 

General Eligibility

A first or second-class UK honors degree (or equivalent) in engineering. There is a limited opportunity for candidates with other qualifications to enter the course via a Pre-master's system, which provides the necessary knowledge of engineering principles applicable to aerospace design.

Part Time Work Details
