Join our Team!
We welcome students from all industries! More information about each team and the link to the application form are just below. Applications open Monday 19th of September and close Sunday 8th of October
Aerodynamics
The Aerodynamics team is responsible for designing and analysing the aerodynamic performance of the entire rocket, including the fins, nose cone, boat tail and overall rocket geometry. The aim is to achieve the required stability while minimising aerodynamic drag… Read More
Aerostructures
The Aerostructures team is responsible for designing and manufacturing the rocket’s
structural elements, including the fins, outer sheath, nosecone, and thrust transfer structures.
While the other teams build individual components and systems, Aerostructures puts it together into something
flightworthy… Read More
Avionics
The Avionics Team is responsible for the electronics, software and communication systems required to operate and monitor the rocket and ground station. This includes power distribution, flight computers, communication between subsystems, telemetry, sensors, propulsion and recovery control… Read more
Business & Marketing
The Business and Marketing team is responsible for three key areas of Bath Rocket Team: searching for funding (pitching to sponsors), handling finances for the year and all social media content, outreach and event organisation.

Engine Mod Simulation
Work on the simulations behind Team Bath Rocket’s rocket engine, modelling complex propulsion systems and helping inform design decisions.
Propulsion
Taking up roughly two-thirds of the rocket, the Propulsion team manages one of the largest and most critical systems on the vehicle. Simply put, the propulsion system must generate sufficient thrust to propel the rocket to its targeted altitude while remaining as light and reliable as possible. Read more
Recovery
The Recovery team is responsible for safely returning the rocket from its peak altitude back to ground level. Controlling the descent rate is critical to protect sensitive avionics, structural hardware, and onboard payload equipment—as well as ensuring the safety of personnel on the ground.
