Aerospace Engineering
Engineering (Mechanical, Electrical, Civil and Environmental)
Aerospace engineering is the branch of engineering focused on designing, developing, testing, and maintaining aircraft, spacecraft, satellites, and missiles. It splits into aeronautical engineering (atmospheric flight) and astronautical engineering (spaceflight), covering disciplines like aerodynamics, propulsion, structures, and control systems. Aerospace engineers work for companies like Boeing, Lockheed Martin, and SpaceX, as well as government agencies like NASA.
