engineering
Aerospace engineers design primarily aircraft, spacecraft, satellites, and missiles. In addition, they create and test prototypes to make sure that they function according to design. Aerospace engineers may develop new technologies for use in aviation, defense systems, and spacecraft. They often specialize in areas such as aerodynamic fluid flow; structural design; guidance, navigation, and control; instrumentation and communication; robotics; and propulsion and combustion.
Through Project Lead the Way, the engineering program is a highly-vetted research-based curriculum in which students can earn concurrent college credit at the
University of Colorado Colorado Springs.​
