Mechanical engineering at Cardiff or Aerospace engineering at bristol?

Which one should I go for? I live in Cardiff and can’t decide between these two options. Mech.eng would keep my options open but I am also interested in aerospace.

Hi there,

Have you looked at the specific modules and work experience options on each course? I think that it's a personal decision but these can be good indicators if a course can give you what you want/ interested in

All the best,

Aerospace but would also like to look at nuclear as well. So I think mechanical would allow me to specialise later on?

Does the Mech course include anything relevant to Nuclear Engineering?
Does any postgrad MEng in Nuclear Engineering require 'previous relevant study' - or just 'an Engineering degree...?

An engineering or science displace is required for an msc in nuclear science and engineering. Looking at course structures, a beng in mechanical engineering at cardiff would be best, then doing an msc in either nuclear or aerospace. Thank you for the guidance :smile:
