The M&P engineers/specialists are often required to provide materials expertise to solve problems that occur either during the design, production or use of aircraft in-service. Here, you will have the opportunity to apply the knowledge you have gained during your degree to provide solutions to demanding and exciting industrial problems.

Be responsible for running qualification projects;

Determine the testing required;

Run analysis of the results to ensure that suppliers are providing capable products;
