Master of Science in Aerospace Engineering (MSAE)

Work with faculty and NASA engineers to design, build and launch microsatellites, perform tests in our hypersonic facility, use machine learning to monitor the health of aerospace structures, optimize spacecraft trajectories or design the airplanes of the future.

Students in the MSAE Program can specialize in sustainable aviation concepts, aerospace structural design, astrodynamics, space systems engineering, hypersonics or propulsion.  They have opportunities to work with AE faculty and NASA engineers to design, build, test, and launch microsatellites like the , participate in the design, building, and testing of our brand new hypersonic facility, learn how to use machine/deep learning for structural health monitoring, optimize spacecraft trajectories or explore the potential of electric and hybrid propulsion systems for general aviation, commuter, and large air transports.  In addition, students can participate in exciting extra-curricular projects, such as the . MSAE students present their work in professional conferences such as the , the , and the 

Students select a faculty advisor who helps structure a program of study that meets individual needs and addresses areas of interest. While working closely with a faculty advisor, each student completes a thesis or a project that results from an in-depth study of a particular research topic of interest.
