About the Concentration
The School of Aeronautics and Astronautics is offering engineering leadership concentration for MS non-thesis students who intend to learn skills that are in high demand in practical aerospace engineering, such as business skills or specialized skills (e.g., machine learning), in addition to the traditional core training in aerospace engineering. It is expected that students in this concentration will be on a career path of technical and engineering leadership.
This is a practical practice-oriented concentration. There is no research focus and funding support. Students will choose to focus their graduate studies in one of the six AAE core areas (Aerodynamics, Aerospace Systems, Astrodynamics and Space Applications, Autonomy and Control, Propulsion, Structures and Materials) and a secondary area (another one of the six core areas, or an approved interdisciplinary study). Students will get MSAA degree after completing the program.
