AEROSPACE ENGINEERING

AEROSPACE engineering is the application of science and engineering principles to the development design and implementation of systems or vehicles that travel above the surface of earth.the vehicles may include variety of air-crafts and  space-crafts such as low speed propeller powered air-craft, high speed jet powered air craft, remotely piloted vehicles , and armed helicopters, along with space related vehicles and systems that include rockets, space-crafts and other protective and development devices . aerospace engineering is intimately involved in  the design, manufacture, control and operation of these systems coupled with a consideration of environmental, economical, ethical and social issues.

main course contents:
