Design the aircraft and spacecraft of tomorrow
Aerospace engineers design, develop, and test aircraft, spacecraft, satellites, and missiles. They work on everything from commercial airliners and fighter jets to rockets and space probes, solving complex problems in aerodynamics, propulsion, structures, and systems.
You run CFD simulations on a new wing design, review stress analysis results with the structures team, attend a design review for a satellite component, and work with machinists to troubleshoot a prototype part. Your designs could fly on Mars or carry passengers across the Pacific.
