航空航天工程理学学士

航空航天工程师构想，设计，开发，测试和监督诸如商用和军用飞机，直升机和其他类型的旋翼飞机等航空航天器系统以及航天器和卫星（包括发射系统）的构建。航空航天工程师受雇于航空航天公司，机身和发动机制造商，美国国家航空航天局等政府机构，军事部门以及研究与开发组织。航空航天工业是一项高科技活动，航空航天工程师通常精通应用数学和基础工程科学，尤其是流体力学和热力学，动力学和控制以及结构和固体力学。航空航天器是复杂的系统，其正确的设计和构造涉及多个学科的协调应用，包括空气动力学，结构分析和设计，稳定性和控制，空气弹性，
Aerospace engineers conceive, design, develop, test, and supervise the construction of aerospace vehicle systems such as commercial and military aircraft, helicopters, and other types of rotorcraft, as well as space vehicles and satellites, including launch systems. Aerospace engineers are employed by aerospace companies, airframe and engine manufacturers, government agencies such as NASA, the military services, and research and development organizations.<br><br>The aerospace industry is a high-technology activity, and aerospace engineers are generally well versed in applied mathematics and the fundamental engineering sciences, particularly fluid mechanics and thermodynamics, dynamics and control, and structural and solid mechanics. Aerospace vehicles are complex systems, and their proper design and construction involves the coordinated application of several disciplines, including aerodynamics, structural analysis and design, stability and control, aeroelasticity, performance analysis, and propulsion systems technology.<br><br>Aerospace engineers make extensive use of computer systems and programs and should have at least an elementary understanding of modern electronics. Aerospace engineers work in a challenging and highly technical professional atmosphere and are likely to operate at the forefront of scientific discoveries, often stimulating these discoveries and providing the inspiration for the creation of new scientific concepts.<br><br>Outcomes for Aerospace Engineering Program<br><br>a. Ability to apply knowledge of mathematics, science, and engineering.<br>b. Ability to design and conduct experiments, as well as to analyze and interpret data.<br>c. Ability to design a system, component, or process to meet desired needs within realistic constraints such as economic, environmental, social, political, ethical, health and safety, manufacturability, and sustainability.<br>d. Ability to function as a productive member of a team, which considers multiple aspects of an engineering problem.<br>e. Ability to identify, formulate, and solve engineering problems.
