Job Title:
Engineering Undergraduate Internships 2026
Work Schedule:
Onsite - Wolverhampton, GBR
With Headquarters in the US and a global reach, Moog Inc. is a world-leading integrator of precision motion control systems for aerospace, defence, industrial and medical applications. Over the last 65+ years, our engineers have developed the capability to design and manufacture the most advanced products for application where precise control of velocity, force, acceleration, and fluid flow are critical. Moog Inc. is split across four operating groups: Military Aircraft Group, Commercial Aircraft Group Industrial Group, & Space and Defence Group.
We are proud that our people and products represent a culture where the opportunity to solve a challenging control problem is always welcomed. This Internship is available at our Wolverhampton facility within our Aircraft Group, which focuses on the design, test, and manufacture of our high-spec primary and secondary flight control actuation products which are used on both Commercial and Military aircraft.
We strive to foster a close relationship with our Interns from day one so that they can return to the business where possible as a member of our Graduate Engineering Programme.
We have positions available in the following areas:
Test Systems Engineering
The Test Systems team is responsible for many diverse engineering-related activities, including the development of application-specific electronic & hydromechanical test system solutions, from concept to detailed design. These Test Systems support the Qualification and Production Acceptance testing of a wide range of Moog Aircraft Electro-Hydraulic Actuation products and other related Flight Control Systems.
The team also manages and deploys their own projects, from initial proposal through requirements management and deployment of bespoke test equipment system solutions in complete fulfillment of customer needs, whether internal or external.
Reporting to the Test Systems Design Manager, you will be responsible for assisting/supporting with multiple disciplines of Test Systems Design (designing new test equipment), Project management, and deployment.
This internship will give you the opportunity to gain hands-on experience working with Test Systems ranging from 50 years old right through to state-of-the-art new technology. Test equipment gives you the unique opportunity to be involved in products from concept right through to the end of product life
Here are the skills and qualifications that will suit these internships
Working towards a relevant bachelor's or master's degree in Engineering (E.g., Aerospace, Mechanical, Mechatronics).
Strong mathematical and analytical skills and a passion for Engineering.
Good communication skills, both verbal and written.
An interest in the Aerospace industry.
ASE (Assembly Systems Engineering)
The ASE Intern will report to the Lead ASE on the Wolverhampton AG site, typically running 3-6-month projects with the objective of implementing assembly technology solutions in support of quality and productivity improvements in production operations. Projects will involve research, hands-on development, and integration of cutting-edge technologies to solve complex assembly process challenges. Project development will be based on-site but implementations will be considered for all AG sites, UK, USA, and Philippine facilities. Typical projects may include process/tooling design and 3D modelling, programming in C#/Python, database design and transactions in SQL Server, PLC programming, system build, and integration using pneumatics and electronic controls, as well as exposure to a variety of technologies such as robotics, vision systems with artificial intelligence, force-monitoring presses, automated torque tools and more.
Military Actuation Engineering
The Military Actuation Engineering team is part of the Engineering function within Moog Aircraft Group and is responsible for the product development of hydraulic primary flight control actuators, predominantly for military and rotor-bladed aircraft. This team is responsible for the full development cycle from concept design through to introduction into service and support of legacy products.
You will be embedded within one part of the Military Actuation Engineering team (design, analysis, or test) where you will gain hands-on experience contributing to real projects while working alongside experienced Engineers.
The range of activities that you will be involved with are quite broad and will be tailored to suit your strengths. Typically, you will get experience of performance analysis, simulation, report writing, component or test fixture design and also test activities.
You will gain exposure to all aspects of the product development cycle: concept development, project planning, requirements management, design reviews, testing and certification and support of legacy products.
You will get to experience interactions with both customers and suppliers and see how our equipment forms part of overall aircraft systems. You will also have exposure to the industry standards, processes, and tools that we apply when developing our products.
Commercial Actuation Engineering
The Commercial Actuation Engineering team is part of the Engineering function within Moog Commercial Aircraft Group and is responsible for the design and development of secondary flight control actuators, predominantly for the actuation of the high lift systems on large Commercial aircraft. This team is responsible for the full development cycle from concept design through to introduction into service and support of legacy products.
During your time at Moog you will gain exposure to many aspects of the product development cycle including project planning, requirements management, obsolescence, design reviews, testing and certification. You will take part in project reviews involving suppliers and customers and will generate documents in support of these reviews.
You will have exposure to and learn to assess engineering drawings and technical documents and will generate technical specifications and reports that you will release in accordance with company standards. You will be involved with in-house test activities on flight control actuators. This can include test unit build and test set-up, test execution, data collection and validation and test report compilation and release.
You will interact with customers and suppliers and see how our equipment forms part of the overall aircraft system. You will also gain familiarity with the industry standards, processes and tools that are used when developing our products.
New Product Introduction
The NPI Engineering team leads new product development from initial concept design through to certification of hardware for use on an aircraft application. We work on a range of high-profile aerospace programs. We have direct access to the latest design technologies such as 3D modelling and design simulation software, prototype manufacture and test environments, additive manufacture tools and techniques as well as opportunities for training and development within these areas.
Commercial Product Engineering
The Commercial Product Engineering team plays a crucial role in transforming engineering drawings into market-ready products, ensuring safety, quality, cost-effectiveness, and timely delivery. Our flight control products are supplied to prominent customers such as Airbus, Comac, Gulfstream, and Boeing. On a typical day, you might be designing tools, fixtures, or flowlines using SolidWorks; creating redline drawings to initiate engineering drawing changes in Teamcenter; assisting assembly and test technicians hands-on; or authoring detailed assembly and test work instructions. As the key technical interface throughout the product lifecycle, we collaborate closely with production operations, supply chain, and customers to address technical challenges, maintain product integrity, and continuously improve assembly and test processes.
