About the course

Aerospace engineering is primarily concerned with the design and analysis of aircraft and spacecraft. Subfields include aerodynamics, structures, controls, and propulsion systems. Students who choose to earn an aerospace engineering degree at Florida Tech are part of a prestigious program that consistently receives accolades, at a university that is ranked in the nation?s top tier.

　　Whether you want to design aircraft, develop new methods of propulsion, or be part of the team for space exploration, an aerospace engineering degree from Florida Tech is the one you want. Here you'll develop a strong background in engineering and get hands-on experience in fields like aerodynamics and fluid mechanics.

　　Florida Tech?s BS in Aerospace Engineering begins with courses that give you an excellent grounding in both engineering and calculus-based physics. In addition, students are introduced to aircraft design in their first year, in contrast to other schools that reserve it as a junior- or senior-year experience. You can expect to learn basic machining, use software to build models and analyze real aerospace parts and systems, and design, build, and test your own model airplane or rocket.

　　As a senior, you will complete a senior design project in collaboration with a team of your peers. Together, you will conceptualize, design, construct, and present an aerospace system or component that fulfills a real-world need, then present the project to industry leaders and potential employers.

　　New technical electives allow you to specialize in unique career-track subfields such as systems engineering, nanotechnology, sustainability, flight test engineering, and control of space systems, making you an extremely valuable prospect in the eyes of future employers.
