Thank you so much to the STEMinist Network for having me in this enriching and powerful conversation. Que vivan las Latinas in STEM! 🚀✈️💕 If you have question about Aerospace Engineering, let me know!
Anshu Kumari Hi Anshu! To be an astronaut you need a minimum of Bachelors and Masters degree in STEM fields (which includes various types of engineering). Being an Aerospace Engineer would qualify you to apply to be an Astronaut whenever they open applications for new classes of astronauts. One thing to note is that the eligibility requirements change every couple of years for the new astronauts classes. So I recommend that you follow NASA on social media to get latest updates on being an astronaut. They have resources, articles and interviews with past and current astronaut corps. 🚀✨ Dream big!
My ideal career for about four years now has been Aerospace engineering! I’ve been taking all the courses that I can in high school to ensure my entry to a good college and this video has given me even more insight into what I can hopefully expect! Thank you!
Lindsay, we are so glad you felt this way after watching our video! Wish you the best of luck in achieving your goals. Stay tuned as we’ll be coming out with more STEM content for you!
Lindsay K Glad this video was helpful for you as you endeavor into a career in Aerospace Engineering! 🤩🚀✨Remember the sky is not the limit, it’s just the beginning ☺️🙌🏽
I just got accepted into my engineering program I wanted for Aero Engineering, I’ve never been so proud of myself and I’m so happy to start my future and become something amazing.
As a retired Aerospace engineer, all I can say is: "You go Girls!" I worked for one of the medium sized aircraft companies my entire career. It was a blast and I got up close and personal to most of the aircraft we designed. A lot of the job is what you make it. Good luck to you all!
@@nathalieqh Hey Nathalie! Actually I am having some doubts regarding masters in aeronautical engineering. Can I ask you here or do you have IG acc so i can ask u there?
@@nathalieqh hola! me interesa mucho ser un ingeniero aeroespacial o electrico y trabajar en la nasa o en spacex, pero soy de Chile y he estado viendo que existe la ITAR y es necesario ser ciudadano estadounidense para trabajar alli
This has definitely answered a lot of small details that has been at the back of my mind in aerospace. This has for sure reasured me a little bit more on how I feel about the field. Thank you!
I needed to hear this I loved the video I am freshman majoring in engineering in community college and plan on transferring in the next 2-3 years to a university that has aerospace engineering I'm looking forward to being in this field in this decade everything should come to plan.
I’m a 23 year old combat veteran, with a dark past of addictions of many kinds, I currently have a wife and 3 beautiful children that have witnessed me change into a dedicated man looking forward for what the future holds. I did some inner child work and remembered conversations I would have all the time with my parents of other worlds, and “what if others out there were like me and you talking about whether we existed”, and how much I would love watching any news related to space and NASA, I remembered waking up to the news that Elon successfully landed a rocket. I just remembered how excited I was every time I watched those things, yet I never realized, not until enduring hell, and got older that I wanted to do something like that. Now I am self learning and re teaching myself mathematics, physics, and chemistry. I have retained a lot of knowledge doing this, and soon I will be going to UTEP to become an aerospace engineer, as soon as I’m proficient in all of these subjects. I would love to see the earths horizon up there.
I want to study aerospace engineering in IIT. But many of my acquainted told me that it's very tough, doesn't have high scope and not so good pay package. And i became confused and skeptical. But after watching this video i will pursue it with full confidence. Thanks for such valuable insights 🤗 Edit:I'm studying aerospace engineering in IITM. Will graduate in 24'
This video got me really excited since Aerospace Engineering is something I’ve been thinking about studying for a long time. What other courses than phsyics, math and chemistry do you think are important to take before applying to college? Also, I’m a european wanting to study in the States. Was it hard for you to apply for scholarships, grants and/or loans ?
I’m glad we could do that for you! I think focusing on doing well on the classes you mentioned is a great way to get prepared for college. Also being part of clubs and organizations like robotics would be great! There are grants and scholarships for out of state students, just requires a little bit more research.
Thank you for such a detailed video answering basic questions everyone has on their minds but no one seems to give such a beautiful insight. i am aspiring to be an aerospace engineer.🙂
Thank you so much for this video.this is very useful and influenced me a lot.now I am in higher secondary,I am sure that I will become a aerospace Engineer some day.
This video Compel me to admire you This is amazing Actually since from child I am very passionate about aerospace engineering I couldn't get admission in that but now I am mechanical engineer and now I have a plan to do masters in aerospace But I am seriously too much confuse about the world trends now Would you have some 5 to 10 min In your precious time of your precious life to council me or give some piece of advice Thanks
Thank you Aerospace engineer can be very tiring but it can also be very fun. This degree will be hard and take a long time to master but once you got it you will be able to work with many type of project. This range from help build some of the airplane structure to helping in building rockets that will take people to space, or satellite to space or other planet. This job can have it's hard part and it can also have it's fun part.
@@TheSTEMinistNetwork thank you! You have no idea how happy I was when I found out people like me being represented in something I have great interest in.
Take physics courses and advanced mathematics courses while in high school! That’ll help once it’s time for those aerospace engineering college classes.
Hi Ian! I would recommend taking math courses and physics as Alexsandra recommended, but in addition take programming class as some languages such a MATLAB are needed for attitude and dynamics or controls class which is part of an aerospace engineering degree! You can also follow on my social media platform of @stemforaerospace on IG and FB for more content related to the aerospace field!
@@sgtplhcb671 my physics teacher was a chemist before he began teaching, and it wasn’t even the math or actual science part, he simply wrote lab reports about what he observed and what other people did. He never went back to school to become a teacher but still somehow got the job.
I just got out of high school. Finished my exams. Watching the video. I am deeply in love into aerospace, science etc. I'm studying 12-13 hours a day (last month and two weeks ago) and aeronautics/astronautics are two subjects I'm studying all by myself (#20hoursofmathperweek) But I'm enrolling into humanities (literature, history, philosophy etc like 🙄🙄) and I really want to get into an aerospace undergraduate or school or smth. But here in France, we only have engineer's schools and you gotta take exams (preparatory classes or university) etc. (Also studying that) And I fucking love everything I'm studying. Hoping I can be an aerospace engineer. #polymathy thank you for this (and reading this if you do!!) 111 💖💖💖💖💖💯
I am from India, i am in 10th class.... Currently I am trying to explore different engineering career... I really liked aerospace engineering. THANKS TO YOU FOR HELPING ME KNOW ALL ABOUT IT. Any tips you wanna give me?
How did you overcome the ITAR restriction as an international engineer? As I also from outside of the US, I was positively surprised that you could be such vital part of the Artemis mission.
Hello!! I'm a junior in Highschool, and I'd like to be an aerospace engineer, I've always been a strong student in math, but I'm not so confident in my physics. I'm a bit worried I wouldn't succeed in this career because of it, what do you recommend I do? I want to be successful but physics doesn't come easy to me, but im willing to put in the work. Also, Embry riddle is in my top schools!!! GO VZLA!!! I hope u can answer my question, I'd love to hear some advice from someone older in aerospace!
Being great at math is great and a huge benefit if you want to become an engineer! It is okay to not be amazing at every subject, as long as you’re willing to put in the work, which it sounds like you are! I think you should definitely go for it and as long as you are dedicated/ passionate about such an amazing career then you will do just fine! YOU CAN DO IT 🙂
You can definitely become an aerospace engineer! Your first year in college is pretty general so it’s not too late 😊 some people don’t pick a major till they’re halfway through college, so you’re still on time!
I’m a Latina woman and I tried applying in a university and the man that was going to fill out my application, said to consider a career change because it wasn’t for me, even though I told him I’ve been dreaming of studying aviation degree/certificate, was going for ‘airframe tech’. He didn’t even let me apply just told me “sorry it’s not for everyone” I felt so discouraged, but now I’m just motivated to change the school of my choice even though I really wanted that school :(
Hiiii I'm a aspiring aerospace engineer and I'm having doubts because I might not get a job because aerospace engineers might not be in deman especially from someone in my country, also we aren't super rich so I might no be able to study in a famous university. I'm a filipino btw. Is there a chance for someone like me?
ice bear Hello! Well one thing you have to do is try and don’t give up, don’t tell yourself you can’t! Shift your thoughts and start believing in your dreams. Lots of universities have scholarships, you don’t have to be rich to attend top-notch universities. Study hard, and apply for scholarships in the pursuit of your dream✨🚀😊
It depends what type of team they are on. If they are in an analysis team they might be doing a lot of analysis work using computer programs and likely spend a lot of time at their desks. If they are in an integration/ systems engineering type role they could be interacting with others a lot and spend little time at their desks.
I'm a sophomore in high school now who is set on becoming an aerospace engineer. Do you have any suggestions on outside programs that I could take on that would provide me with more experience in the field?
There are some companies that will actually let high school students intern for weeks at a time at their company! Recommend looking into that and taking math/physics courses to prepare you for college.
I've really wanted to work for NASA since i was about 12. But then recently i found out that NASA only hires US citizens. It truly did disappoint me knowing that i couldn't one day work for the company i truly loved. How did she get to work for NASA since she said she's originally from Columbia?
From my job search experience, all positions (i.e. system, controls, software) related to space tech require us citizenship or PR status :(, not to mention projects that involves Mars mentioned in this video
Sadly I'm too late. I'm a sophomore in a university that doesn't have a aerospace engineering program. So as much as this career interests and as amazing it seem to work at NASA i will probably never get the chance. But I do find it interesting on learning on what people do as an aerospace engineer
You aren’t too late! There are all kinds of disciplines in the aerospace field - mechanical engineers, electrical engineers, industrial engineers, etc etc!
@@TheSTEMinistNetwork sorry I should have mentioned this in my comment, but my university provides no Engineering programs. When I joined this university I had a whole other career in mind and did not consider engineering at all. Which is why I realized that I may have doomed myself. But thank you very much for this. If possible I would try to go back to school for an aerospace engineering degree(if I can somehow find a way in which it will not damage me financially).
I'm 15 this year and I'm aiming to become an aerospace engineering one day. Problem is I'm from Malaysia and I heard that I would get really low pays as an aerospace engineer here in my country. Where should I study aerospace engineering after middle school and work at?
Hi Alexandra, I'm in my early thirties and I'm considering going back to school for engineering. Due to my age, and having super power of ADHD (easily become extremely board but can hyper focus and perform well even under immense pressure) job security and flexibility is important. I definitely want to work on air craft and propulsion systems. At my age would you recommend Mechanical engineering for job security or just go for Aerospace engineering? Thanks in advance
I believe either would work and I wouldn’t let your age be a limiting factor stopping you from what you really want to do! There are many great aerospace companies/ jobs out there at the moment and it’ll keep increasing. If you aren’t 100% sure about aerospace then do mechanical.
In my personal opinion in order to become a great candidate for any engineering company it helps to have many projects, leadership roles, and a strong GPA. (This is my personal opinion and not on behalf of Boeing)
Hi, I am a 3rd year Mechanical Engineering student, what would you girls say is the key to landing an aerospace internship? What would you guys do on a regular day? I am honestly terrified of actually landing an internship, and just being useless or unknowledgeable enough to be of any help. I am also looking to pursue a Masters in Aerospace...and hopefully fulfill my dream of working on fighter jets. Do you have any tips for an average student like me to achieve a position like that?
Sounds like landing an internship with a defense company is what is best for you! This will open up opportunities to work on fighter jets as a career after you graduate! Don’t worry about not being “knowledgeable” enough for an internship, as long as you understand the concepts taught in school you will be able to learn what they teach you on the job. Employers don’t expect you to know how to build/ design fighter jets when you start working for them, they know they will have to teach you, as you are a student. Check out our resume and interview tip videos to land that internship!
Hi Don Thomas! The difference is that by having a systems engineering background you have the ability to think in a more “bigger picture” and understand how complex processes integrate with complex systems such as an airplane, drone, rockets. The aerospace engineering degree by itself is also useful, but it’s focused most on the different components of a flying object like an airplane, rocket, drone, satellite; but with an aerospace degree you can work in design, manufacturing, operations, test flight, structures/stress, even in the airline industry. For more content in the field of Aerospace you can follow my social media platform STEM for Aerospace in IG or Facebook. 🌟✈️🚀
I'm looking to take Aerospace Engineering but what if I'm not so good in math and haven't taken the hardest classes? I'm looking to go to Penn State. I'm interested in rockets and airplanes but more so space, does aerospace engineering involve space and other planets?
yes, aerospace engineering involves space! Keep studying for your math classes and get tutoring help. Don't give up! Aerospace Engineering is a fun career that pays well.
Hi!!! I am truly passionate about being an astronaut! If I pursue aerospace engineering can you tell what to do to become an astronaut and fly to space!!! I'm very interested in it plz tell me
i am very passionate for this branch but all the top colleges in India that offer this are only for total nerds, those who study 12hrs a day, but i cant and in private collages its too expensive.
There are other degrees aside from Aerospace Engineering that allow you to work in the space industry, such as: Electrical Engineering and Mechanical Engineering.
I’m in 6th grade and I get all A’s and I wanna be an aerospace engineer. I’m going to middle school next year. Any tips to help me get closer to my dream job?
It is amazing that you already know what you want to be when you grow up! Our advice is for you to keep up the good grades, take advanced math/ physics classes once they become available to you, and become involved in robotics/ aerospace clubs!
Hey young engineer do take interest in your favourite subject it can be maths or physics or even chemistry studybit so much that you can represent your country in the international olympiad and bring medal for your country and these medals are worth a lot in college applications (like mit, harvard and each name you could come up with) so all the best and wish me luck too see you in Massachusetts;)
Liandrie Senamrof Hi Liandrie! Yes, you can be an aerospace engineer if you graduated aero. My recommendations would be to expand your knowledge in rocket propulsion, space mechanics, and attitude and dynamics to relate the similar knowledge learned in aeronautics to astronautics you have the best of both worlds
I was selected as an aerospace engineering student in Amrita viswavidyapateem university in combaitire but unfortunately I lack financial support of family 😑😑
What if I'm an electrical Engineering student but I really want to become and aerospace engineer however there are no schools for aerospace engineering except MIT and Boston University which I got rejected.
I’m interested in studying engineering but I have no science background. Would I still be able to join aerospace engineering in college? If yes what class or preparation do I need ?
If you aren’t in college yet don’t worry about it because that is the point of college, to learn! If you want to get a bit of a head start, although not necessary, you can take physics and math courses. ☺️
Hi, I am rahul. I completed automobile engineering recently i am not at all intrested to continue my life in this field, i am very much interested in becoming pilot, my family is not supporting me to go in that field. So i lost hope in becoming pilot but at least i want to MS in aeronautical or aerospace engineering is it possible to switch the field
I recommend that you pursue the MS in either of those fields if it is what you are truly interested in! There may be a few courses you have to take before starting your Master’s program. Each school has different requirements, therefore it is key to check with the school to understand what classes they require.
um, im just 15 yrs old, but as per my research on different courses on physics or aerospace, i suggest u a Masters in aerospace engineering. coz u can work on both- the aircrafts flying inside earth's atmosphere and aircrafts outside it. Hope it helps u😅
@@AditiBagul7532 thanks for ur opinion but unfortunately im not eligible for Masters in aerospace bcuz Indian bachelor's is a 3 yr degree.... And for master in aerospace there's a requirement of 4 yr degree FYI ...if u r interested in aerospace make sure tht u take bachelor's in engineering (even mech is enough ig) ☺
I would say any of these is very promising! There are probably more design roles out there but I wouldn't discourage you from pursuing the others if that is what you are passionate about.
Dear mam I want to know that after studying astronautical engineering or aeronautical engineering can I go in space mission or any other space progra.m
hello, my name is mathavan and i want to become an aerospace engineer, what subjects should i select in high school to ready me for aerospace engineering?
I’m in the 11th grade I live in Georgia I have never taken physics and I average about a B in math and I want to take up Aerospace engineering in college, am I going to be set alright good for it? Also how much years is a masters in this field
As long as you want it and are passionate about it you can pursue Aerospace Engineering in college. You don't have to be a straight A student during high school to do well in college. A Master's degree can take roughly about 2 years.

Hii ma'am
How is opportunities for aerospace engineering in India??
Ahh thanks!! Aerospace engineers rock!
I really enjoyed the video. Thank you Natalie and Steminist network.
Maanasa Sachidanand glad you enjoyed it Maanasa!

@@nathalieqh I have some questions regarding aerospace engineering. I have sent you a request on LinkedIn network.
thank you very much Nathalie. u r truly inspiring
She really is ✨✨✨
Not me as a senior who studied business her whole years of high school and now is trying to get into aerospace engineering 🥲
You can definitely become an aerospace engineer! Your first year in college is pretty general so it’s not too late 😊 some people don’t pick a major till they’re halfway through college, so you’re still on time!
You both are so inspiring!💜
Thank you so much 🥹
Great video, this was amazing to watch!
Thanks so much!
I’m a Latina woman and I tried applying in a university and the man that was going to fill out my application, said to consider a career change because it wasn’t for me, even though I told him I’ve been dreaming of studying aviation degree/certificate, was going for ‘airframe tech’. He didn’t even let me apply just told me “sorry it’s not for everyone” I felt so discouraged, but now I’m just motivated to change the school of my choice even though I really wanted that school :(
Don't let anyone discourage you from your goals.
I'm an aerospace engineering student and I wanna persue mtech in aerospace propulsion
Good morning after finishing Bsc physics what I want to study for areo space engineer pls tell me
You can do Ms in aerospace in any research university.
@@chrisbourne8852 gud afternoon can u give ur inta id for discuss about areo space engineer
Chris is right! Research which universities are best for you and get involved in aerospace related projects to build your resume!
@@TheSTEMinistNetwork kkk Tqs
What's the first thing I should do to get started in this career? Also how did you go to school did you pay for it or did it get paid for??
Take classes like physics and calculus. Also, everyone's situation is different some go to college on grants, scholarships, loans, etc.
Hiiii
I'm a aspiring aerospace engineer and I'm having doubts because I might not get a job because aerospace engineers might not be in deman especially from someone in my country, also we aren't super rich so I might no be able to study in a famous university. I'm a filipino btw.
Is there a chance for someone like me?
ice bear Hello! Well one thing you have to do is try and don’t give up, don’t tell yourself you can’t! Shift your thoughts and start believing in your dreams. Lots of universities have scholarships, you don’t have to be rich to attend top-notch universities. Study hard, and apply for scholarships in the pursuit of your dream✨🚀😊
You can do it! Nathalie’s advice is great and we believe in you! 🙂
Bravo!!!! Un ejemplo de constancia y perseverancia, aplausos de pie para ti !!!!!!Felicitaciones
Carmen Rivas Muchas Gracias Carmen por el apoyo! ✨🚀🙏🏽
Jesus loves you!!
Amazing video! Do aerospace engineers spend a lot of time at their desks?
It depends what type of team they are on. If they are in an analysis team they might be doing a lot of analysis work using computer programs and likely spend a lot of time at their desks. If they are in an integration/ systems engineering type role they could be interacting with others a lot and spend little time at their desks.
Wish me luck. Good video. Thank you for showing me the looks behind the job.
You can do it!
Wow amazing, this is very helpful for me thank you for making this useful video❤
Wow she is such an inspiration!
I couldn’t agree more!!
I'm a sophomore in high school now who is set on becoming an aerospace engineer. Do you have any suggestions on outside programs that I could take on that would provide me with more experience in the field?
There are some companies that will actually let high school students intern for weeks at a time at their company! Recommend looking into that and taking math/physics courses to prepare you for college.
@@TheSTEMinistNetwork Sounds good, thanks!
@@revaamritkar7281hi, any updates?
Mi admiracion y respeto, eres un orgullo de Venezuela. Gracias
Muchas Gracias Yamira por el apoyo! 🙏🏽🇻🇪✨
I've really wanted to work for NASA since i was about 12. But then recently i found out that NASA only hires US citizens. It truly did disappoint me knowing that i couldn't one day work for the company i truly loved. How did she get to work for NASA since she said she's originally from Columbia?
You may want to look into various NASA contractors that may have different requirements than those NASA has. Best of luck!
@@TheSTEMinistNetwork oh thanks.
From my job search experience, all positions (i.e. system, controls, software) related to space tech require us citizenship or PR status :(, not to mention projects that involves Mars mentioned in this video
Sadly I'm too late. I'm a sophomore in a university that doesn't have a aerospace engineering program. So as much as this career interests and as amazing it seem to work at NASA i will probably never get the chance. But I do find it interesting on learning on what people do as an aerospace engineer
You aren’t too late! There are all kinds of disciplines in the aerospace field - mechanical engineers, electrical engineers, industrial engineers, etc etc!
@@TheSTEMinistNetwork sorry I should have mentioned this in my comment, but my university provides no Engineering programs. When I joined this university I had a whole other career in mind and did not consider engineering at all. Which is why I realized that I may have doomed myself. But thank you very much for this. If possible I would try to go back to school for an aerospace engineering degree(if I can somehow find a way in which it will not damage me financially).
@@deathstroke8639 try to transfer to another school
I have one question please. I'm a mechanical engineering sophomore. Is it possible to do a master in Aerospace engineering??
Yes, it is!!
@@TheSTEMinistNetwork Thank u so much for responding!
Happy to help ☺️
I'm 15 this year and I'm aiming to become an aerospace engineering one day. Problem is I'm from Malaysia and I heard that I would get really low pays as an aerospace engineer here in my country. Where should I study aerospace engineering after middle school and work at?
The United States is a great place to study aerospace engineering! 😁
Though just know you can’t work on rockets for nasa nor space x if your not a US citizen.
She mentioned that she's from Venezuela so how she got job at NASA. Citizens of other countries are not allowed jobs at NASA or are they now?
How to do internship & where?
Hi Alexandra, I'm in my early thirties and I'm considering going back to school for engineering. Due to my age, and having super power of ADHD (easily become extremely board but can hyper focus and perform well even under immense pressure) job security and flexibility is important. I definitely want to work on air craft and propulsion systems. At my age would you recommend Mechanical engineering for job security or just go for Aerospace engineering? Thanks in advance
I believe either would work and I wouldn’t let your age be a limiting factor stopping you from what you really want to do! There are many great aerospace companies/ jobs out there at the moment and it’ll keep increasing. If you aren’t 100% sure about aerospace then do mechanical.
Is it better to go to a university or a college if you want to be an aerospace engineer?
For the first two years either works! Then you could re-evaluate for the last two years to see which would be best for you at that point.
I am pursuing Aeronautical engineering now(completed 6th sem).. can you help me what skills should I have to work in Boeing?
In my personal opinion in order to become a great candidate for any engineering company it helps to have many projects, leadership roles, and a strong GPA. (This is my personal opinion and not on behalf of Boeing)
Does maths is hard in aeronautical engineering please tell me
@@uthramk11b8 nothing is impossible if you study it with your heart
love this inspiring video! 💕
Just got Rick Rolled by an add before the video started, that's how you know it's going to be a good video 😂
Hi, I am a 3rd year Mechanical Engineering student, what would you girls say is the key to landing an aerospace internship? What would you guys do on a regular day? I am honestly terrified of actually landing an internship, and just being useless or unknowledgeable enough to be of any help.
I am also looking to pursue a Masters in Aerospace...and hopefully fulfill my dream of working on fighter jets. Do you have any tips for an average student like me to achieve a position like that?
Sounds like landing an internship with a defense company is what is best for you! This will open up opportunities to work on fighter jets as a career after you graduate! Don’t worry about not being “knowledgeable” enough for an internship, as long as you understand the concepts taught in school you will be able to learn what they teach you on the job. Employers don’t expect you to know how to build/ design fighter jets when you start working for them, they know they will have to teach you, as you are a student. Check out our resume and interview tip videos to land that internship!
What is the difference between aerospace system engineering and aerospace engineering?
Hi Don Thomas! The difference is that by having a systems engineering background you have the ability to think in a more “bigger picture” and understand how complex processes integrate with complex systems such as an airplane, drone, rockets.
The aerospace engineering degree by itself is also useful, but it’s focused most on the different components of a flying object like an airplane, rocket, drone, satellite; but with an aerospace degree you can work in design, manufacturing, operations, test flight, structures/stress, even in the airline industry. For more content in the field of Aerospace you can follow my social media platform STEM for Aerospace in IG or Facebook. 🌟✈️🚀
I Diploma in Computer engineering, what do I have to do to become an aerospace engineer?
You can get your Masters degree in Aerospace engineering. You will probably have to take a few courses before enrolling 😊
I too wanna become an aerospace engineer!!!
It is an *amazing* and rewarding career! You can do it! 😊
Awesome video ! Very inspiring 💗👏💫
So glad it’s helpful ☺️
I'm looking to take Aerospace Engineering but what if I'm not so good in math and haven't taken the hardest classes? I'm looking to go to Penn State. I'm interested in rockets and airplanes but more so space, does aerospace engineering involve space and other planets?
yes, aerospace engineering involves space! Keep studying for your math classes and get tutoring help. Don't give up! Aerospace Engineering is a fun career that pays well.
Hi!!!
I am truly passionate about being an astronaut! If I pursue aerospace engineering can you tell what to do to become an astronaut and fly to space!!!
I'm very interested in it plz tell me
There are multiple paths that can lead you to become an astronaut! Pursue what you are passionate about!
@@TheSTEMinistNetwork thank you so much! One day I will become an astronaut
how do you study in america? it coast too much
Can you still be an aerospace engineer if you’re not that good at math? Thank you
Of course you can be! Check out our “do I have to be good at math to be an engineer” video on our channel! 🙌🏽
How we can get nasa mechanical engineering job
I want to become an aerospace engineer, hope I do so 🤗
You WILL become an Aerospace Engineer! If you can dream it you can achieve it!
@@TheSTEMinistNetwork thank you so much, it means a lot
☺️
i am very passionate for this branch but all the top colleges in India that offer this are only for total nerds, those who study 12hrs a day, but i cant and in private collages its too expensive.
There are other degrees aside from Aerospace Engineering that allow you to work in the space industry, such as: Electrical Engineering and Mechanical Engineering.
@@TheSTEMinistNetwork sure , thanks for reply
Thanks!! Love this💕💕❤
Happy you liked it 😍
I’m in 6th grade and I get all A’s and I wanna be an aerospace engineer. I’m going to middle school next year. Any tips to help me get closer to my dream job?
It is amazing that you already know what you want to be when you grow up! Our advice is for you to keep up the good grades, take advanced math/ physics classes once they become available to you, and become involved in robotics/ aerospace clubs!
Hey young engineer do take interest in your favourite subject it can be maths or physics or even chemistry studybit so much that you can represent your country in the international olympiad and bring medal for your country and these medals are worth a lot in college applications (like mit, harvard and each name you could come up with) so all the best and wish me luck too see you in Massachusetts;)
What's advanced maths?
Can you be an aerospace engineer even if you graduate at aeronautical engineering
Liandrie Senamrof Hi Liandrie! Yes, you can be an aerospace engineer if you graduated aero. My recommendations would be to expand your knowledge in rocket propulsion, space mechanics, and attitude and dynamics to relate the similar knowledge learned in aeronautics to astronautics you have the best of both worlds
Oh really thank you!!!,Im an incoming senior high and starting to prepare for my future..THANKS FOR THE ADVICE!!
I studied Electronics and Communication engineering. Is it possible for me to choose Aerospace engineering for Masters?
Yes! You will likely have to complete a few pre-requisites before starting the program but it can be done!
I was selected as an aerospace engineering student in Amrita viswavidyapateem university in combaitire but unfortunately I lack financial support of family 😑😑
I am trying to get advanced math classes in high school but that don’t let me. Will I still be able to be an aerospace engineer?
Yes! As long as you do your best in college and you keep focused on your goal of becoming an Aerospace Engineer you will do fine! 😊
What's advanced maths?

What is the minimum result in A/L (in sril lanka ) to be an aerospace enginner and i hope to go uk to do that
What is A/L?
@@TheSTEMinistNetwork I am doing maths stream in sri lanka including physics,maths and ict.I mean advanced level examination(A/L).
to become an aerospace engineer you should have chemistry isn't it. (I'm also from SriLanka that's why I'm asking)
What if I'm an electrical Engineering student but I really want to become and aerospace engineer however there are no schools for aerospace engineering except MIT and Boston University which I got rejected.
Have you considered becoming an electrical engineer that works for an aerospace company? Those are ALWAYS needed as well!
@@TheSTEMinistNetwork I am thinking about doing a combined masters program as a mechanical engineering at another university to enhance my skills.
I’m interested in studying engineering but I have no science background. Would I still be able to join aerospace engineering in college? If yes what class or preparation do I need ?
If you aren’t in college yet don’t worry about it because that is the point of college, to learn! If you want to get a bit of a head start, although not necessary, you can take physics and math courses. ☺️
Hi, I am rahul. I completed automobile engineering recently i am not at all intrested to continue my life in this field, i am very much interested in becoming pilot, my family is not supporting me to go in that field. So i lost hope in becoming pilot but at least i want to MS in aeronautical or aerospace engineering is it possible to switch the field
I recommend that you pursue the MS in either of those fields if it is what you are truly interested in! There may be a few courses you have to take before starting your Master’s program. Each school has different requirements, therefore it is key to check with the school to understand what classes they require.
Hello, I've completed bachelor's in physics , i really wanna work on aircrafts
So will u suggest me a Master's course tht i should i choose?
um, im just 15 yrs old, but as per my research on different courses on physics or aerospace, i suggest u a Masters in aerospace engineering. coz u can work on both- the aircrafts flying inside earth's atmosphere and aircrafts outside it. Hope it helps u😅
@@AditiBagul7532 thanks for ur opinion but unfortunately im not eligible for Masters in aerospace bcuz Indian bachelor's is a 3 yr degree.... And for master in aerospace there's a requirement of 4 yr degree
FYI ...if u r interested in aerospace make sure tht u take bachelor's in engineering (even mech is enough ig) ☺
@@Mess447 ohk, i ignored tht u had bachelor's in physics ! And sure i'll keep tht in mind thanks!😊👍
Which specialisation has more scope in aerospace field? Is it design or aerodynamics or propulsion
I would say any of these is very promising! There are probably more design roles out there but I wouldn't discourage you from pursuing the others if that is what you are passionate about.
Dear mam I want to know that after studying astronautical engineering or aeronautical engineering can I go in space mission or any other space progra.m
Yes, you can! With those type of degrees there are many options for you in the space industry.
How's the job opportunity for international students after completing MS in Aerospace Engineering in the US?
I will come back in 4 years and tell u if I entered Aerospace engineering or not. Pray for me ✨💛
Work hard and you’ll get in!!! ☺️🙌🏽
@@TheSTEMinistNetwork Thanks. Of coarse I will.🦋
I want to be like her in the future🕺🏻
You can do it!
hello, my name is mathavan and i want to become an aerospace engineer, what subjects should i select in high school to ready me for aerospace engineering?
Physics, pre-calculus, calculus 🙂
@@TheSTEMinistNetwork thanks!
धन्यवाद mam i first year student
And my Branch aeronautical engineering ( from India) jay hind
That is great, good luck with your studies.
I’m in the 11th grade I live in Georgia I have never taken physics and I average about a B in math and I want to take up Aerospace engineering in college, am I going to be set alright good for it? Also how much years is a masters in this field
And what can I do to prepare ASAP for this I’m taking an engineering course in my school so far for preparation and I average an A
Get better at math, when you get better at math you get better in physics
Being good at math really helps in so many subjects!
As long as you want it and are passionate about it you can pursue Aerospace Engineering in college. You don't have to be a straight A student during high school to do well in college. A Master's degree can take roughly about 2 years.
Try and take a physics course your senior year and keep doing well in math.
I'v one question can aerospace engineers go to the space?
Yes, they can!
I'm a aerospace engg student
Awesome! 👏🏻
Please can you give me some informations
How do u Get in
Great job great achievement
Thank you! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
