Aerospace Engineering Area of Concentration
The aerospace industry provides job opportunities each year for many mechanical engineering graduates. The aerospace engineering area of concentration is intended to provide specialty courses which focus the application of basic mechanical engineering skills on aerospace systems.
The courses that comprise this area of concentration:
ME 305 Introduction to Aerospace Engineering
ME 405 Theoretical Aerodynamics
ME 411 Propulsion Systems
ME 425 Aerosapce Engineering Laboratory
ME 427 Introduction to Computational Fluid Dynamics
ME 461 Aerospace Design
ME 510 Gas Dynamics
ME 512 Light Weight Structures
MA 305 Advanced Calculus
PH 322 Celestial Mechanics and Solar System Physics
Any student who completes five of these recommended courses (ME 425 not included) may recieve, upon request, a letter from the Department Head attesting to the fact that the student has completed the requirements in the aerospace engineering area of concentration in the M.E. Department. With proper planning, students should be able to take six of these course offerings without overload.
