Applying for Aerospace engineering

I want to apply for aerospace engineering with BTEC Electrical and Electronic engineering with A level Maths(Mechanics). Would unis accept a different field of engineering for Aerospace? Thank you

I'm confused. Are you now thinking of doing an MSc in Aerospace having obtained an Electrical engineering related degree? If so, then that is entirely possible :smile:

No im still doing A levels with a BTEC and i want to do aerospace engineering , but my BTEC is electrical and electronic will unis care about the different field of engineering.

Yes and a No. I have called some unis regarding that question as i am in your situation and they said it is fine and hence i applied through UCAS. LETS HOPE THAT I GET SOME OFFERS

Surrey, Bristol, Brunel, Queens Marry and Southampton. I applied For Aerospace Meng engineering with industrial experience. I am on my last year of Betec Electrical & Electronic engineering with predicted grades at D*D*D*.

Some people in my year are doing AS level maths cause they just realised the fact that unis want A level maths with the BTEC. Anyway you predicted grades are quite high, how did you do in your first year? What grades did you get for each unit?

I got 9 D out of possible 9
Can I apply to a electronic engineering degree with a IT btec and Maths A level ?

I don't think they would accept that cuz as far as I know the entry requirement usually says to have a relevant subject, which means to be engineering, but theres no harm in actually contacting each uni
Good luck
I've applied to do BEng Aerospace/aeronautical Engineering at Bristol UWE, Surrey, Salford, Loughborough and Sheffield. I got an offer from UWE today:smile:
