Hey. I'm an EE major at UCLA but I want to work for the aerospace industry. So what kind of jobs would I be able to get, if any? Would I be at a disadvantage to Aerospace Engineers? Also, can I get an aerospace job in Chicago, New York, Seattle, the San Francisco Bay Area, Europe, or India?

If you're an EE and interested in aerospace engineering, "avionics" is the keyword you are looking for. And no, there's no such disadvantage since nowadays a flying machine is almost nothing without proper electronics on it.
 
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/
