The global market for drones and autonomous aerial vehicles is rapidly growing. With a rise in applications for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) and uncrewed aircraft systems (UAS), the defence and aerospace industries seek graduates conversant in key aspects of autonomy including: dynamics and control, guidance and navigation, decision making, sensor fusion, data and information fusion, communication and networking.
Students on the MSc in Autonomous Vehicle Dynamics and Control benefit from a distinct educational experience and unique facilities, including our drone laboratory, allowing you to gain hands-on experience in the development of the autonomous flight systems and technologies of tomorrow. The course content has been designed based on advice and industry insights from our Industrial Advisory Board, comprising industrial representatives from big primes to small- and medium-sized enterprises, and is accredited by the Royal Aeronautical Society (RAeS) on behalf of the Engineering Council as meeting the requirements for Further Learning for registration as a Chartered Engineer.
