What classes in college do I need to take to get into aerospace engineering?

I am asking this questions due to the fact that I've been interested in aerospace ever since I began to look at the stars and what lies past our current reach in space. I am currently a senior in highschool down in Miami Florida. #college #college-major #aerospace-engineering

As an engineer, is there ever an invention or creation that is too big to dream of, and if not then how do you get started on the intimidating journey towards the end goal?

Hello, I am a senior in high school aspiring to become an aerospace engineer in the future, in hopes of changing the world for the better through an engineering background. A dream like this requires some sort of plan and instead of waiting to be in college with all the fancy laboratories and equipment I decided I can start my own research and development towards my goal of improving the aerospace industry right now. I ask myself big questions, sometimes questions that seem almost impossible to answer, but one question has had me hooked for awhile, how can we make jet propulsion not run on chemicals and fuels but instead with electricity? My best brainstorm is that the combustion chamber is switched with an ionization process that can accelerate the incoming air and also shoot electromagnetic waves at the incoming air in the combustion chamber to heat it up the air. Thus this process heats and accelerates the air, just like your average combustion chamber. As crazy as it sounds this idea has been an obsession of mine and I am convinced I can create it, now whether or not it will actually work is still unknown to me, but research is all about trial and error. However my friends, my parents, and sometimes myself think I am in over my head for wanting to build something that seems like something from Star Trek but my question is, is it alright to dream big like this? Is there a limit to what an 18 year old can actually build? And if there is no limit then where do I start? Not technically where do I start, but how does the engineering process work? What is usually the first step that an engineer takes when they have a eureka moment and decide to build something? The likelihood of this plasma jet engine working seems very small, but any chance at success seems worth it and I'd love it if I can get any help from real engineers on how to start or even if to start. Thank you! #engineering #aerospace-engineering

How can I find and communicate with an engineer for an interview for my high school?

I am looking for someone to interview for my high school engineering academy. I’m interested in mechanical, electrical, and engineering physics but I am happy to interview any engineer. The interview would be online and we could discuss the time that works best for you. If anyone could give me advice on a number to call or if someone volunteers it would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for reading my post and have a great day.
