Is Aerospace engineering harder than Mechanical and Electrical engineering?

I was wondering who here went to university to do an undergrad degree in aerospace engineering, where you went and how difficult (ie grades, sat scores etc...) it was to get accepted? I've done my research on the various schools in North America that offer the program and some of them give a...

Hello, I have enrolled in aerospace engineering at university and I am trying to figure out what kind of jobs I'm going to be training for specifically. Does anyone have a hint?

My name is Eugene Joseph, and I am currently a sophomore at St.Francis Prep in Fresh Meadows, New York. I am enrolled in a program which is called Science Research. Science Research is a class in which we register within our freshman year and in which we develop an understanding of what type...

Why do only a few engineering students take Aerospace engineering where as many of those take Mechanical and Electrical engineering at the Universities?

Hi, I'm new to this thread and was wondering if anybody knew how the job market would be for a person who would graduate from UCSD with a b.s. in aerospace engineering. Right now, I am just in a community college close to UCSD and will be accepted in the Fall of 2005 if I sign up for the...

What does a PhD student need to do in order to get a Ph.D degree? How long does it take a PhD student to get a PhD degree?

Is it enjoyable? I leave for college next year, but I don't know what I want to study. I have a great interest in math and mechanics, and I'd like to do engineering. I've narrowed down my list to Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering and Nuclear Engineering (I don't know, I guess I find...

I found out yesterday that I've gotten picked up for grad school! I'm tentatively going to be working on nano-sensors for UMCP's aerospace engineering smart structures lab. I have yet to read any of the background material, but it'll basically be tiny "fingers" of metal which behave...

I'm having a hard choice on what to aim for. I am really interested in flight/propulsion/etc, but also would like a general knowledge so that I keep my options open. I am intent on working as hard as possible, so difficulty or application is not of concern to me. What are some of the...
