About Career

Are you fascinated by space? Do you also love working with machines? Would you like to study and design machines that can fly? If yes, you should consider a career in aerospace engineer. 

Aerospace engineering is a field that studies the design, operation and construction of an aircraft, spacecraft, missiles, rockets, space shuttle, etc.

Aerospace engineering has two sub-branches,

1.Aeronautical engineering - This engineering involves designing and construction of aircraft such as gliders, fixed-wing aeroplanes, jets, and helicopters.

2. Astronautical engineering- This engineering deals with the design and development of spacecraft. This type of engineering is also known as rocket science.

Aerospace Engineering consists of several engineering subjects such as mechanical engineering, computer sciences, graphics and designing, mathematical modelling, drafting, electronics, robotics, aeronautics etc.

Example: 

• Wright Brothers created the first aeroplane that could carry humans. 
• Wernher von Braun is considered the leading figure in the development of rocket technology and space travel in the 20th century.
