MSc, PgCert Aerospace Dynamics

... United Kingdom
... Cranfield University

Course Overview

The aerospace industry in the UK is the largest in the world, outside of the USA. Aerodynamics and flight dynamics will remain vital elements in the development of future aircraft and in reducing civil transport environmental issues, making significant contributions to the next generation of aircraft configurations. 

Aerodynamic modeling and flight dynamics are essential in designing and developing combat aircraft and uncrewed air vehicles (UAVs) in the military arena. The continuing search for aerodynamic refinement and performance optimization for the next generation of aircraft and surface vehicles creates the need for specialist knowledge of fluid flow behavior.

Cranfield University has been at the forefront of postgraduate education in aerospace engineering since 1946. The MSc in Aerospace Dynamics stems from the Aerodynamics program, one of the first master's courses offered by Cranfield, and is an integral part of our heritage. The integration of aerodynamics with flight dynamics reflects the long-term link with the aircraft flight test activity established by Cranfield.

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 Dominic's blog detailing his flight experience.

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.

General Eligibility
