Aerospace Engineering
Bachelor's (4 years) at Nottingham Trent University
At NTU, we are developing Aerospace Engineers who are ready to solve practical engineering problems facing the aerospace industry. Aeronautical and aerospace engineering is one of the fastest growing industries in the UK. You’ll leave us well equipped to face today’s challenges and, as we focus on the future of flight, you’ll be ready for the industries next big challenges. Sustainability is a particularly pertinent issue for engineers as many products are designed to have short life-span. That’s why we teach you sustainable design which facilitates the re-use, re-purposing or recycling of materials and components – it’s the focus of one of your first year projects and we have a whole module dedicated to it in your final years. You’ll be learning from the best, with our expert lecturers and researcher who have extensive aerospace industry experience. Additionally, you will work on live industry projects and hear from guest speakers, both on campus and on company visits, to gain the latest knowledge of trends and techniques. **Recognised by Industry** This course is recognised by CDIO, a framework that has a project based learning approach. This framework stresses engineering fundamentals set in the context of Conceiving — Designing — Implementing — Operating (CDIO) real-world systems and products. The framework is dedicated to providing students with their initial grounding in engineering through live projects...
Physics with Astrophysics
Bachelor's (4 years) at Nottingham Trent University
Studying the universe is a pretty tall order but we’ll support you every step of the way. Not only will you study underpinning core physics but you’ll get to apply it to fascinating astronomy concepts including extragalactic astronomy, stellar evolution, cosmology and space science. Optical telescopes in our on-campus observatory, radio telescopes and solarscopes are all available for you to use alongside the theory. Together with teaching from our expert staff and small lab groups you’ll be developing technical and problem solving skills that are vital for employers. **Why choose this course?** - You’ll learn in inspiring environments. We have a custom-built, on-campus observatory recognised by the International Astronomical Union, a radio telescope, a CT scanner, new microscopes, MRI scanners, a scanning tunneling microscope and an ionising radiation laboratory. This ensures that you get the practical experience you need to pursue a successful career. - You’ll study innovative accredited courses. Our pioneering courses and research are carried out in close collaboration with university and industry partners worldwide, giving our students skills and knowledge which are highly relevant to the needs of industry. Our undergraduate MSci and BSc physics courses are accredited by the Institute of Physics (IOP) which will help you to achieve Chartered Physicist status sooner. - You’ll help to deliver research with impact. Our physics staff contribute to research activity in a number of areas including Superhydrophobic Surfaces, Medical Resonance Imaging, Art Conservation and Space Weather. Every year approximately ten of our students undertake paid summer placements in these research groups, giving them hands-on experience of cutting edge research groups. NTU has recently been awarded the Queen’s Anniversary Prize for research – the highest national award achievable. - You’ll have the opportunity to get experience. Our courses offer the opportunity to apply for a placement in the UK or abroad, giving you the real-life experience employers are looking for. Recent year-long placements have taken place at CERN, E.ON, The Netherlands Forensic Institute and Diamond Light Source. There are paid summer placements in our research groups, where you get hands-on research experience. Our students have also undertaken paid summer placements in local secondary schools and at British Antarctic Survey. ..
Aerospace Engineering
Master's (4 years) at Nottingham Trent University
Among the fastest-growing industries in the UK, aeronautical and aerospace engineering offers a range of career prospects in research and development, testing, and maintenance. So we’ll train you up in everything you need to know, looking outside of traditional aerospace boundaries, and focusing on the future flight where you’ll explore novel propulsion and drone technology. Sustainability is a particularly pertinent issue for engineers as many products are designed to have short life-span. That’s why we teach you sustainable design which facilitates the re-use, re-purposing or recycling of materials and components – it’s the focus of one of your first year projects and we have a whole module dedicated to it in your final years.

Applied Ecology and Geospatial Techniques
Master's (2 years) at Nottingham Trent University
The current global threat to our ecosystems requires innovative solutions. That's where ecologists equipped with the very latest theoretical and practical knowledge come in. Observing, understanding and predicting natural phenomena and the behaviour of taxa and ecosystems is a vital component in tackling the challenges the planet faces. This course focuses on applying field techniques to survey populations and ecosystems. You'll develop advanced quantitative skills, including statistical modelling, as well as the ability to use a range of recent and emerging geospatial technologies. We'll get you out in the field, making a difference where it really matters. You'll join our thriving community of active learners and develop sought-after skills, turning you into the professionals at the forefront of the sector and reimagining the future with innovative solutions to real-world conservation challenges. You'll study at Brackenhurst Campus - the perfect environment to put theory into practice and develop field techniques right on site. You can undertake a research project using NTU's links with national and international conservation projects. Get hands-on with a range of advanced software and technological tools used in ecological modelling and geospatial analysis, including remote sensing and Geographical Information Systems (GIS). 93% of our postgraduates from the School of Animal, Rural and Environmental Sciences are in work or further study within 15 months of finishing their degrees (of those available for work or study, latest Graduate Outcomes Survey 2020/21)...
Aerospace Engineering (with Foundation Year)
Bachelor's (4 years) at Nottingham Trent University
Mathematics underpins every great engineering solution. That’s why, in your first year, we focus on mathematics and support you to develop a board knowledge of engineering and science. You’ll be ready for anything once you move on to BEng (Hons) Aerospace Engineering in your second year. At NTU, we are developing Aerospace Engineers who are ready to solve practical engineering problems facing the aerospace industry. Aeronautical and aerospace engineering is one of the fastest growing industries in the UK. You’ll leave us well equipped to face today’s challenges and, as we focus on the future of flight, you’ll be ready for the industries next big challenges.

Additionally, you will work on live industry projects and hear from guest speakers, both on campus and on company visits, to gain the latest knowledge of trends and techniques. It’s OK if you want to change direction at the end of your foundation year. The flexibility means that we can support you if you want to move onto one of our other engineering or mathematics courses in your second year. You’ll learn by taking part in a series of projects both individually and in a group. This develops your problem-solving and creative thinking skills – an essential quality for a professional engineer. During your second year you’ll compete as part of a team to win the Grand Challenge, an engineering problem posed by industry. This course is recognised by CDIO, a framework that has a project based learning approach.
