A warning.

Courses with titles like "aeronautical technology" or "aeronautical science" do not usually contain the requirements to become an aeronautical engineer - they are basically there to create revenue for the university.

If there is even the slightest chance you might ever want to work in aerospace engineering make absolutely sure that the course you are planning to attend is accredited by the Royal Aeronautical Society. So far as I know, neither the Leeds nor Salford courses are.

(Also of-course our original poster asked about distance learning courses, and they don't meet that criterion either).
