Career questions tagged aerospace-engineer
What is the most effective way for a late starter in advanced STEM courses to not only catch up but become exceptional in aerospace engineering, and how can I turn my path into a strength that sets me apart in college and the industry? #Fall25
I know aerospace engineering is extremely competitive so I’m trying to figure out how to build skills quickly and intelligently instead of wasting time. My long-term goal is to work in the aerospace industry and contribute to real innovation, not just get a degree.
Weak in math but dream of becoming an aerospace engineer - where do I start??
I’m currently an AS Level student who wants to pursue aerospace engineering. I never took math seriously until I realized this year that I wanted to enter the field. Since then, I’ve started learning everything I can that’s relevant — reading books on aerospace engineering (such as Introduction to Flight), studying essential programming languages (MATLAB, Python, C++), and experimenting with Arduino projects. I’m doing well in my other STEM subjects (Physics, Biology, and Chemistry), but my weak foundation in mathematics has been a constant concern. I understand that aerospace engineering involves a lot of advanced math, and I want to strengthen this area to prepare for the future.
Questions for an Aerospace Engineer:
Questions for an Aerospace Engineer: What does the day of an Aerospace Engineer look like (more in-depth)? What are the average hours per week? Is there mandatory over-time? Is this a very creative job? Or is it your assignment very structured? Is the job very dynamic? Is there always a new assignment to work on? Is it so difficult that you need to do research outside of work (internet, seeking another professional, books, etc.) or do the job training & academic education suffice? What do they mainly ask at an interview? Does NASA offer apprenticeships?
How much do aerospace engineers make when they first start?
I'm in 8th grade and preparing for my future for when I get into college, my dream job is to be an Aerospace Engineer because I love science.
