A selection of materials for engineering applications, such as metals, ceramics, polymers and composites, will be studied including their carbon footprint and their impact on the environment. Material test methods will be used to determine the deformations and failures of the various engineering materials. This section also introduces the dynamics of particles and rigid bodies with their engineering applications.

The analysis of structural components will be developed with theoretical and numerical skills that are necessary in the design of real world structures. Bodies such as trusses in equilibrium are studied and the external and internal parameters such as force, moment, stress, strain, etc. The mechanics part provides an understanding of the behaviour of particles and rigid bodies whilst stationary and in motion. The module introduces you to the fundamentals of structural analysis (statics and dynamics) and the mechanical behaviour of a broad range of engineering materials. For further information on Class 1 Medicals and other regulatory restrictions (including those affected by the UK leaving the European Union) visit the UK Civil Aviation Authority website. For those who may be concerned that there may be an impediment to being awarded the Class 1 Medical then it is recommended that the medical is undertaken prior to commencing the course. Students are encouraged to undertake the Class 1 Medical between the first and second years of the course. This is not covered by Student Finance and additional funding would be required to complete the ATPL training.Īn ATPL is only valid if you hold a Class 1 CAA Medical Certificate. Please be aware that, in addition to university tuition fees, the cost of the second year, which involves the integrated Airline Transport Pilot Licence (ATPL) training, is approximately £79,500.
