Electrical Engineering BS to Aerospace Engineering MS

AI Thread Summary
Pursuing a career in space-related fields, such as satellites, is feasible but challenging, particularly for those transitioning from other engineering disciplines. A background in electrical engineering can provide a solid foundation, especially in avionics within aeronautical engineering. However, the success in this field largely depends on the specific concentration chosen for further studies, as aerospace engineering offers various specializations like fluids, controls, and propulsion. It's important to assess personal strengths and prerequisites for each concentration to ensure a smooth transition into the aerospace sector.

Hello. Is this possible, or would I be missing out on a lot of groundwork? Any options?

I'd like to work on anything involving space, like satellites and such.

Thank you!?

Not to discourage you but if am being honest, it will be difficult. If you're smart enough (which I believe you are ;)), then it should be fine. The easiest part for you will definitely be the electronic side of aerospace, which is avionics if you join aeronautical engineering. All the best :).
 
I looked into doing that when I picked a masters program. It really depends on what you want to concentrate on. Even in aerospace engineering for a masters you can get a wide range of concentrations (fluids, controls, avionics, propulsion, structures, etc)

as an electrical engineer, some of those you will have zero background in, others, like controls, you have all the prerecs required (at least in my case I did)
 
TL;DR Summary: What topics to cover to safely say I know arithmetic ? I am learning arithmetic from Indian NCERT textbook. Currently I have finished addition ,substraction of 2 digit numbers and divisions, multiplication of 1 digit numbers. I am moving pretty slowly. Can someone tell me what topics to cover first to build a framework and then go on in detail. I want to learn fast. It has taken me a year now learning arithmetic. I want to speed up. Thanks for the help in advance. (I also...
guys i am currently studying in computer science engineering [1st yr]. i was intrested in physics when i was in high school. due to some circumstances i chose computer science engineering degree. so i want to incoporate computer science engineering with physics and i came across computational physics. i am intrested studying it but i dont know where to start. can you guys reccomend me some yt channels or some free courses or some other way to learn the computational physics.
I'm going to make this one quick since I have little time. Background: Throughout my life I have always done good in Math. I almost always received 90%+, and received easily upwards of 95% when I took normal-level HS Math courses. When I took Grade 9 "De-Streamed" Math (All students must take "De-Streamed" in Canada), I initially had 98% until I got very sick and my mark had dropped to 95%. The Physics teachers and Math teachers talked about me as if I were some sort of genius. Then, an...
