Aerospace Engineering

If it moves thru the air, aerospace engineers study and design it–from golf balls to jet skis, from weather ballons to wind generators, from bicycles to automobiles and yes, you'll study airplanes and rockets too. We even study the air–wind and weather driven phenomenon like tornados, hurricanes, and (of course) Cyclones!
