AE faculty contract with the Aerospace Department.
-
Students are required to take 40 out of their 60 credits within the Aerospace Department and can take the other units within other departments. However, places on any particular unit run by a department in another faculty are not guaranteed, but is up to the department in question to approve. The study guides for each department contain more information about whether students from other departments can take units run by them. Undergraduate students are also allowed to take Year 4 (i.e. post-graduate, Master's level) units. If there is an interest in a research project, the Aerospace Department must be informed in advance. Units from the stand-alone MSc and MRes courses are NOT available for exchange students.
Students can be accepted for one semester or for one year. When selecting your units, take note that some units run for the whole year. Therefore, if you only go for one semester first check the unit catalogue to make sure you can follow the courses you choose. If the classes run from 1-12 weeks you can take them for the semester, but if classes run from 1-24 weeks you can only choose them if you are going for a year. The unit catalogue can be found here.
Due to the limited number of courses available at the Aerospace Department (that have no overlap with the TU Delft Aerospace Bachelor program and that run for only one semester), the Exchange Office has made the following two partial packages:
- Composites Engineering: Include courses AENGM0092 ‘Composite Materials for Sustainability’, AENGM0091 ‘Composites Design, Manufacture and Product Development’ and AENGM0052 ‘Composite Products Development’. This gives you 50 credits (25 ECTS) at the Aerospace Department, the remaining credits can be put under a second theme and may come from either the Aerospace Department or a different one.
- Design of Aerospace Robots: Include courses AENGM0073 ‘Aerial Robotics’, AENG30018 ‘Numerical and Simulation Methods for Aerodynamics’ and AENGM0086 ‘Experimental Methods for Aerodynamics and Aeroacoustics’. This gives you 50 credits (25 ECTS) at the Aerospace Department, the remaining credits can be put under a second theme and may come from either the Aerospace Department or a different one.
The courses listed in these packages are the only ones available at the Aerospace Department, creating a different coherent course list with them will be very difficult.

Please read the School of Engineering Course Selection Information Pack carefully. It gives a detailed overview of Engineering courses offered in Glasgow.
The subject area of our agreement is Aerospace Engineering and generally you are expected to take the majority of the courses (2/3) from Aerospace Engineering. You can choose a different discipline, e.g. Electrical or Mechanical, depending on your academic background, but you must stick to the same discipline.
There are several restrictions in place; you need to take all courses from the same discipline and from the same year/level. For example, a selection of courses all from Electrical Engineering all from year 4 ENG4XXX. Additionally, the discipline you apply for before arrival is the one you need to follow! For some disciplines (e.g. Biomedical Engineering) it might be very difficult to find courses that are matching the TU Delft criteria, as well. Keep this in mind!
Course approval is depending on availability, pre-requisites and timetables. Exchange students are restricted to undergraduate level courses levels 3 and 4 at the University of Glasgow, no matter what they are studying at their home university. Their undergraduate status cannot be changed in the online system. Please note level 1 and 2 Engineering courses are not available to exchange students. From the School of Engineering yearly an ‘Engineering Course Selection Guide’ will be updated, which provides insight in the courses you can take in each discipline. You can find the course selection guide here.Courses with the following codes are not available to any visiting students:
- Medicine (MED)
- Dentistry (DENT)
- Veterinary Medicine (VETMED)
- Postgraduate level (5xxx)

AE faculty contract with the Faculty for Engineering and the Environment.

Students have to take 75% of their modules within the subject area of Engineering. One module can be taken at a different faculty, but the student needs to check if they meet the pre-requisites, these are thoroughly checked with the students application. Management courses suitable for engineering students can be found at the Faculty of Engineering and Physical Sciences (former Faculty of Engineering and the Environment).
Modules have to be selected within the current study level of the student (Bachelor or Master). This is a university wide policy and during application advice on courses will be given matched to the student's study level. Whether a BSc student is allowed to follow year 4 (MSc) credits is assessed by the responsible department and exceptions might be made. BSc students can apply for MSc courses, but should keep in mind that they will not be able to follow them based on the decision made by the department. In any case, students must meet the pre-requisites of their selected courses. Students study a maximum of 60 credits (30 ECTS) per semester.
The course cataloge can be found here.
Students with a non-EU nationality who want to take level 6 courses, need to gain ATAS clearance. The request takes approximately 1 month to process. An ATAS clearance can be requested already 9 months before the start of the exchange programme. Southampton can inform you about the procedure.
courses with the following code, SESA2024, 3039, 3037/6080, 3059, 6071,6076,6081 and 6037 are not open to exchange students. Please note, these codes are subject to change and currently apply to academic year 2024 – 2025 only. Final approval of modules will be confirmed at point of application

Students should select a minimum of 50% of the credits from the School of Engineering. The rest of the modules can be selected from other disciplines. A module means a study unit. Level 5 and 6 are second and third year undergraduate modules. Level 4 is a 1st year module and can be recognized with a 1-code, like AERO110.
The Master level courses are coded with a 4; for example AERO405 they are 4th year, level 7 modules. BSc students can also apply for level 7 modules but the pre-requisites need to be met. Every year a module guide will be provided, which includes the modules that are restricted and what is not available for each area.
This exchange is only available for BSc students.
