Master of Science Degree in Aerospace Engineering


Graduate students seeking a master's or doctorate degrees to augment their undergraduate or graduate education can take advanced courses in:

  • Aerodynamics and fluid mechanics
    • The study of air flow over a body, such as the wings on an aircraft or spacecraft.
  • Aeroelasticity and structural dynamics
    • The study of how inertial, elastic and aerodynamic forces interact.
  • Flight mechanics and control
    • The study of how forces affect a flight vehicle, how it responds to those forces and how to modify the vehicle to achieve the desired goals.
  • Propulsion and combustion
    • The study of creating mechanical power using internal combustion engines, jet engines, turbomachinery, propellers, wings, fins, and wheel and axles to generate force causing motion.
  • Structural mechanics and materials behavior
    • The study of the stress and strain on the components of a flight vehicle.
  • System design and optimization
    • The study of the application of algorithms to improve the performance, weight, reliability and/or cost of aircraft and spacecraft systems.
