hi,
I am rigth now a undergraduate pursuing my mechanical degree. I wish to join the best university for my post graduation in aerospace. So what are the fields I should research in as a mechanical engineer.
 
Physics news on Phys.org
It depends on what area of aerospace you want to study in grad school.
 
as an undergrad you should study all the general aero fields, fluid mechanics, structures, systems analysis, vehicle design, propulsion, vehicle dynamics, etc,
 
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/
