Thanks guys! To the last post. I recently completed work experience at global engineering firm, FMC Technologies. I was shadowing a senior engineering there and he asked me what i was intending to study. I said aero engineering and he said that type of degree suits their type of work. I really enjoyed my work their and could see myself enjoying being employed there also they have a graduate scheme which i asked about. So i think my degree would open doors to various engineering firms as i would enjoy doing that line of work. Then there is straight int pilot training once i graduate.

In terms of debt, my tuition fees are paid for me and i only have access to a loan of £915 a year which results in a debt of £3660 once i leave uni after 4 years. So its manageable.

I will be definatley looking at the UAS and hopefully obtain a PPL by the end of my degree.
