Graduate Program Overview

The overall objective of the Graduate Program in Aerospace Engineering is to provide students with an advanced understanding of aerospace systems. This is accomplished by means of classroom instruction and hands-on laboratory experiences. A student may specialize in aerodynamics, aircraft flight dynamics and control, spacecraft orbital motion, aircraft structural design, and vehicle systems design or other aerospace areas. Students may broaden their education by choosing elective courses in a secondary field of interest.

Graduates of the Aerospace Engineering Program at UTA are prepared to pursue careers in aircraft and/or spacecraft design and development, rocket and turbine propulsion systems, aircraft flight testing, space trajectory design/analysis and other related areas. Two of our graduate alumni are astronauts.
