During Level 3, a student will attain a satisfactory standard in a Flight Laboratory Course, the arrangements being subject to the approval of the Aerospace Engineering Board of Studies.
A student must normally achieve a weighted mean grade of 55 or above at Level 2 and Level 3 in order to proceed to the Year in Industry, progression being at the discretion of the Aerospace Engineering Board of Examiners. A student who fails to progress may be permitted to become instead a student for the Degree of MEng Aerospace Engineering (AERU10) or the Degree of BEng Aerospace Engineering (AERU11).
A student will be responsible for securing a suitable industrial placement in order to take AER390 Year in Industry. The appropriateness of the placement will be determined by the Aerospace Engineering Director of Undergraduate Studies. A student who fails to obtain a suitable placement will instead be required to become a student for the Degree of MEng Aerospace Engineering (AERU10). A student will take AER390 Year in Industry before proceeding to Level 4.
AER390 requires that a student will spend a minimum of 38 weeks working in an industrial establishment, the arrangements being subject to the approval of the Aerospace Engineering Director of Undergraduate Studies. A student who fails to satisfy these requirements may be permitted by the Faculty to become instead a student for the Degree of MEng Aerospace Engineering (AERU10).
A student must pass the Aerospace Individual Investigative Project (ACS429 / AER429 / COM429 / EEE429 / MAT429 / MEC429) at the first attempt in order to be eligible for the award of the Degree of MEng Aerospace Engineering with a Year in Industry. A student who fails to satisfy this requirement may be permitted by the Faculty to become instead a student for the Degree of BEng Aerospace Engineering with a Year in Industry (AERU15).
A student must pass security clearance in order to take ACS402 Industrial Training Programme: Avionics. A student who fails to pass security clearance will be permitted to take a suitable replacement module at the discretion of the Aerospace Course Director.
A student must satisfy the requirements of the General Regulations for First Degrees as to progression in order to continue as a student for the Degree of MEng Aerospace Engineering with a Year in Industry (AERU14). A student who fails to satisfy these requirements may be permitted by the Faculty to (a) at the end of Level 2 become a candidate for the Degree of BEng Aerospace Engineering with a Year in Industry (AERU15), or (b) at the end of Level 3 become a candidate for the unaccredited Degree of BEng Aerospace Technology (AERU17). A student who fails the Individual Advanced Project at Level 4 or who chooses to withdraw from the University at the end of Level 3 may be awarded the unaccredited Degree of BEng Aerospace Technology (AERU17).
