AER61005   Industrial Training Programme: Aerospace Materials and Manufacturing   (15 credits)

Description

This module will provide an insight into the design, manufacture and in-service performance of aerospace materials and components. This will normally be a collaboration with Rolls-Royce (Derby) who will set a real technical challenge. In small groups you will undertake experimental work and present a report that will require an in-depth literature review. To supplement the main technical challenge there will be focused technical seminars on relevant topics. These topics will be provided by both academics and engineers. In addition, we will provide seminars on employability skills, data handling, quality and safety in the aerospace materials sector.
