I am doing my bachelors degree in computer science. but i seriously want to pursue higher studies in aerospace engineering. any cue on how to proceed??
The discussion centers on the transition from a Bachelor of Technology (BTech) in Computer Science to pursuing higher studies in Aerospace Engineering. Key recommendations include taking courses in thermodynamics, aerodynamics, and gas dynamics to build foundational knowledge in aerospace. The necessity of declaring a double major is highlighted, as many institutions require students to be officially recognized as engineers to enroll in engineering courses. The participant from India notes the challenges of pursuing aerospace studies due to the separation of fields in their educational system.
PREREQUISITESAerospace engineering aspirants, computer science students considering interdisciplinary studies, and individuals interested in the integration of computer science with aerospace applications.
Abraham said:If you're starting out with a BS in comp sci, I'm guessing you'll be working with CFD (comp fluid dynamics) for an MS /M Eng?
If so, you should take aero courses like thermo, aerodynamics, gas dynamics to familiarize yourself with these topics. You may have to declare a double major, because schools sometimes won't let you take engineering courses without actually being an engineer.
Someone with more aerospace knowledge can tell you if other topics are necessary.
