Aerospace engineering research at Bristol is organised via cross-faculty research groups with interests spanning four key areas: Fluid Flow and Aerodynamics Bristol Composites Institute (BCI) Dynamics and Control Robotics. This work is supported by at least 50 academic staff, more than 70 research staff and over 240 postgraduate students, plus a highly experienced administrative and technical support team. Aerospace engineering is a specific discipline involving experimental, numerical, theoretical and computational research which is later applied to aerospace-related problems, for example, fixed-wing aircraft, rotorcraft, wind turbines and UAVs. All postgraduates would expect to publish in high-quality journals and present at international conferences so our research programmes are aimed at independent and self-motivated applicants.
