What is an aerospace engineer?

Aerospace engineers are professionals who design, develop, test, and supervise the manufacturing of aircraft, spacecraft, satellites, and missiles. They work on the science and technology behind flight within the Earth's atmosphere (aeronautical engineering) and beyond (astronautical engineering). Their responsibilities often include improving fuel efficiency, safety, and environmental impact of flight vehicles. Aerospace engineers work for government agencies, defense contractors, and private companies involved in aviation and space exploration.

What is an aerospace job?

An aerospace job is a position that focuses on either aeronautical and astronautical technology. Aeronautical engineers develop aircrafts that stay in the earth’s atmosphere, such as helicopters, jets, and commercial airplanes. Astronautical engineers work on aircrafts that can break the atmosphere, such as missiles, rockets, satellites, and spacecraft. An aerospace job may fill any role vital to a company’s development of new flight technologies.
