Objectives: The MSc degree programme in Aerospace Engineering aims to consolidate the professional profile already formed in the three-year BSc degree course, characterised by a solid understanding of the concept of systems engineering. However, this concept is now more closely centred within the aerospace context, and is explored at a conceptual level that allows graduates to work with decision-making autonomy in more advanced productive and scientific sectors. This instruction is provided in the first year and concludes with two interdisciplinary teaching units early in the second. In this way the MSc student acquires a global vision of systems, learning to assemble knowledge from different disciplinary spheres and apply it to the context in which space and aeronautical products are designed, built and utilised.
Once this vision is acquired and consolidated, students are given some options to expand on specific aspects of aeronautical or astronautical engineering. In all cases, one of the educational goals is to open students to the international context, particularly important in the aerospace industry. Qualified students are given ample opportunities to fulfill their educational requirements at partner European universities under mobility programmes providing a range of possibilities, from simple thesis preparation abroad to double degree programmes.
