Course content

Our MSc Aerodynamics and Computation programme focuses on numerical methods and the physics and computation modelling of turbulence. The programme will enhance students’ knowledge of flow physics and their ability to use state-of-the-art computational tools to improve industrial designs. This MSc suits graduates or qualified individuals from engineering, scientific and mathematical backgrounds wishing – to specialise in aerodynamics.

Compulsory modules include: Aerothermodynamics; Advanced Computational Methods I; Applications of CFD; Turbulence: Physics and Modelling; MSc Research Project.

Optional modules: four from: Advanced Computational Methods II, Aeroacoustics; Biological Flow; Design, Search and Optimisation; Experimental Methods for Aerodynamics; Flow Control; Hypersonic and High Temperature Gas Dynamics; Race Car Aerodynamics; Wing Aerodynamics; Numerical Methods.
