This is vague. What other jobs? Brain surgeon?

Zz.
 
what can i do with an aerospace engineering degree other than being an aerospace engineer?
 
Repeating your question without answering ZapperZ's is not going to help.
 
i only repeated it because since he never understood it
beside being a brain surgeon isn't something i want to do
