What is aerospace engineering?

Aerospace engineering combines the design, production, operation, and maintenance of space infrastructure and their systems. Study space engineering and you could be at the forefront of designing world-class satellites, spacecrafts, and missiles.

What do aerospace engineers do?

Aerospace engineers design, construct, operate, and sustain aerospace vehicles and systems, including propulsion, and flight systems. Space engineers may focus on satellites, launch vehicles, robotics, structures, thermodynamics, navigation, combustion/propulsion, aerodynamics/fluids, instrumentation, simulation and communication.
