This program helps the students to develop a deeper level of understanding and skill in a field of engineering that is relevant to multiple disciplinary areas like robotics and control, computational engineering, mechanics or engineering management or a greater understanding and skill in an interdisciplinary area like energy, environment and sustainability or transportation. This is accomplished first through a rigorous foundation within core aerospace engineering disciplines, followed by a six subkect concentration tailored to the student's interests and completed with hands on aerospace engineering lab and capstone design subjects.
