PhD Degrees in Engineering Studies Mechanical Engineering Aerospace Engineering

Aerospace engineering focuses on the design, development, testing, and production of aerospace systems. It tackles complex problems related to flight within Earth's atmosphere and beyond.

During an aerospace engineering degree, you'll take foundational courses in mathematics, physics, and chemistry. Then, you'll transition into specialized coursework that covers more complex subjects like aerodynamics, propulsion, and flight mechanics.

As an aerospace engineering graduate, you could find yourself working for aerospace and defense companies, designing, manufacturing, and testing aircraft and spacecraft for both civilian and military applications. Alternatively, you might join government agencies to work on national aerospace programs, research and development projects, or even help shape policies and regulations.

With a vast array of job opportunities and the potential to contribute to groundbreaking innovations, this degree is an excellent choice for those passionate about technology and exploration.

Requirements for the PhD program often involve the student having already obtained a Master’s degree. Additionally, a thesis or dissertation primarily consisting of original academic research must be submitted. In some countries, this work may even need to be defended in front of a panel.
