Aerospace Engineering Space Systems Design Careers?

AI Thread Summary
Aerospace engineering students interested in space systems design are exploring job opportunities in Canada. The field is perceived as having limited local job availability, with many professionals suggesting that pursuing a career in space systems may require relocation outside of Canada. There is skepticism about major companies like Bell being involved in satellite launching or design. The discussion highlights a need for awareness of the aerospace job market and potential geographical limitations for aspiring engineers. Overall, those aiming for a career in space systems should consider broader options beyond Canada.

I plan on switching from electrical to aerospace engineering in the winter and aerospace engineering at my university is basically split into 4 parts, the one that seems to interest me the most is the space systems design), but I'm curious if there is any aerospace engineers here who are in that field, how would you comment on the job availability in Canada?

How many companies exist in Canada which send things to space? I doubt Bell does it's own satellite launching or design.

If you want to work in space systems, you are almost certainly going to have to move out of Canada.
 
Due to the constant never ending supply of "cool stuff" happening in Aerospace these days I'm creating this thread to consolidate posts every time something new comes along. Please feel free to add random information if its relevant. So to start things off here is the SpaceX Dragon launch coming up shortly, I'll be following up afterwards to see how it all goes. :smile: https://blogs.nasa.gov/spacex/
