Explore What’s Possible
Our department brings the systems behind flight and space to life. You can study aerodynamics, propulsion, structures and flight systems while designing, testing and improving the machines that move through the air and beyond it.
Your Future in Flight and Space
Choose an Aeronautics or Astronautics concentration and prepare to work with aircraft or spacecraft systems. Each path combines core courses with design, testing and technical electives.
Turn Questions into Discovery
Work with faculty on flight, space systems, propulsion, materials and more. Research gives you room to test ideas, learn from setbacks and see how a question becomes a result.
Community That Moves You Forward
Find advising, career resources and support through our department and college. Whether choosing courses, looking for an opportunity or planning next steps, you will have people to help.
Find Your Place Beyond Class
Our students build aircraft, spacecraft and prototype vehicles alongside peers who share their drive to make things work. Student organizations, research groups and competition teams give you space to contribute, learn and lead.
Make Your Work Take Flight
See an idea become evidence in the Low Speed Wind Tunnel, propulsion and structures labs, space-environment testing facilities and aircraft design spaces. Here, you can collect data, refine a design and learn how engineering decisions hold up in practice.
Bring Your Ideas Into Focus
If you look at an aircraft or spacecraft and want to understand how every system works together, you are in the right place. Join a department where curiosity turns into design, testing and the confidence to take on what comes next.
