航空航天工程理学硕士

航空航天工程硕士学位为学生提供了继续攻读博士学位的准备，或者为他们提供了比学士学位更高级的准备水平。该硕士课程的学生必须至少获得30个研究生以上的学位课程，其中6个将是论文研究。学生必须在学习的第一学期选择一个委员会，由一名主要教授和另外两名教授组成，他们将帮助计划研究计划并担任论文研究的主要负责人。
The Master of Science in Aerospace Engineering prepares the student for continued progress toward the doctoral degree or to enter the work force at a level of preparation more advanced than a bachelor's degree would provide.<br><br>Research in the Department of Aerospace Engineering is performed in state-of-the-art facilities. The Advanced Performance Composite Materials Laboratory focuses on innovative methodologies for structural health monitoring of composite structures. Capabilities include fatigue and fracture testing and non-destructive evaluation. Research in the Autonomous System Research Lab focuses on UAS control and monitoring systems to enable a high degree of autonomous, cooperative behavior in unmanned air and ground systems. Other department facilities include a low speed wind tunnel and a two-stage light gas gun. Faculty and students also conduct research at the Advanced Composites Institute, including the Marvin B. Dow Stitched Composites Development Center, the Raspet Flight Research Laboratory, and the Center for Advanced Vehicular Systems (CAVS), which is a member center of the High Performance Computing Collaboratory. Graduate research and teaching assistantships are available for highly-qualified students.
