Undergraduate Program
Overview
Aerospace engineers play a major role in the technological advancement of our society. In addition to their work in the aerospace industry, they use their expertise in fluid mechanics, aerodynamics, engineering materials, and control systems to make valuable contributions in areas such mechanical engineering, biomedicine, medical devices, and more.
We believe in developing well-rounded engineers — people who can identify a problem, understand all potential approaches, and develop innovative and practical solutions. Our program is designed to ensure that students are proficient in the fundamentals of engineering to become exceptional contributors to an exciting and vital industry. Our alumni are currently pursuing rewarding careers in academia, industry, and defense sectors around the world, doing vital work that touches everything from scramjets and commercial aircraft to space related missions at NASA. Furthermore, about 20% of BAEM graduates go on to pursue M.S. and Ph.D. degrees.
AEM is deeply committed to immersing students in hands-on learning that connects academic projects to real world challenges that we face as a society.
Throughout their undergraduate studies, BAEM students have ample opportunity to develop and test their engineering skills on real world research and design projects.
