What is Aerospace Engineering?

Aerospace Engineering is the use of advanced science and technology in the design and development of flight vehicles. This includes the analysis and design of aircraft, spacecraft, missiles and rockets.

As an Aerospace engineer, you will develop new technologies in control, navigation, and propulsion that will lead to future milestones in the history of flight.

The broad scope of Aerospace Engineering encompasses the study of:

• Physics of fluid and gas flow
• Heat transfer
• Combustion processes and their effects on atmospheric pollution
• Performance, dynamics and control of vehicles and other general systems
• Analysis and design of complex structures
• Principles of jet, rocket and other propulsion systems
