The MEng (Master of Engineering) program is a four- or five-year integrated course that builds on the Bachelor's degree, giving students a direct route to a Master's qualification while covering advanced, specialised subjects such as space systems, aircraft engines (propulsion), computational fluid mechanics, and advanced materials science. This programme is fully accredited by the Royal Aeronautical Society (RAeS) and provides all the necessary academic requirements for graduates to register as a Chartered Engineer (CEng).
Teaching staff are world-leading experts who deliver instruction through engaging lectures, practical laboratory sessions, and work in the Flight Simulator Suite. Students are assessed through a combination of written examinations, comprehensive coursework, oral presentations, and substantial group and individual design projects. An optional professional training placement year can be undertaken, providing valuable industrial experience before graduation.
The University of Surrey is highly regarded for its commitment to graduate employment and research-led teaching.

The tuition fee for each academic year of the programme for international students is £27,000 per academic year.
The University of Surrey offers major scholarships for international students starting an undergraduate course, such as MEng Aerospace Engineering. One key option is the International Excellence Award, which gives high-achieving, self-funded students a £5,000 reduction in tuition fees based on their application and grades.
Another major opportunity is the Sam and John Dawson Scholarship, a very generous award that provides £60,000 over the course of a STEM degree. Students can also apply for the prestigious Vice Chancellor's Future Leaders Award, a competitive scholarship that recognises outstanding academic performance and potential for future leadership.
Graduates from this six-year course, with its key industrial placement year and advanced MEng qualification, are ready for senior roles in aerospace and related high-technology fields. The five major career paths include:
Applications are to be submitted through UCAS. But we strongly suggest and encourage all applicants to contact AHZ's trained counsellors for help with the process.
