General Description of Aerospace Engineering

Aerospace engineers work on the development of aircrafts
such as helicopters, missiles and weapons, flight simulators and
components, and any fixed-winged aircraft. They construct,
install, and monitor these types of equipment. To become this
type of engineer, you must obtain at least a bachelors degree in
aerospace or mechanical/electrical engineering. People in these
engineering fields must have interpersonal skills, creativity, and
be interested in physics and math. There are many schools and
jobs requiring aerospace engineers such as NASA, private jet
