The invention of the aeroplane at the beginning of the last century has effectively shrunk the planet and has vastly expanded human mobility, bringing immense social and economic benefits to mankind.
From these early beginnings, a vast global aerospace industry has developed, which is a key asset for the future. Our engineering talent will contribute to its success.
Innovation at the Forefront of Learning Aerospace Engineering at the University of Sheffield is an innovative and technology driven subject, backed up by our long tradition of engineering excellence. Our courses produce multi-skilled graduates with technical command and management potential, essential for today´s engineer and tomorrow´s business leader.
Excellent for Teaching and Research Our engineering courses enjoy an international reputation. In official assessments of teaching quality by the Higher Education Funding Council for England, four of the five contributing departments to the Aerospace Engineering courses were rated as "excellent" and all five were in the top research rating band of 5*/5. This means that a University of Sheffield degree in engineering is a prestigious qualification, highly valued by employers and society.
