What are aeronautical and aerospace engineering about and are they any fun?

Question

I may be deciding to do them at university.

Answer 1

Aerospace/aeronautical engineers study fluid dynamics, structures, materials, control systems, and orbital mechanics. These disciplines require good math and science skills.

Engineers apply these skills for designing and manufacturing aircraft and missiles, rockets and satellites including manned space vehicles such as the Space Shuttle and Space Station.

I have spent my career so far developing simulations for NASA. Many of the people I work with have Aerospace degrees.

Good Luck!

Answer 2

They can be fun if you enjoy math and physics! Challenging.
