Can i take mechanical engineering in undergrad and then aerospace engineering in graduate studies?

Just Wondering... I'm planning on taking either mech or aerospace engineering at the University of Toronto. Then i want to do grad school in the states.

Yes you can! I am doing it right now. Finished my undergrad as a Mech E last spring and I am currently a first year grad student in aerospace engineering. Just make sure to take all of the relevant classes that you can and try to get involved in research that is aerospace related.
 
As an aerospace engineer senior student,I advise you to do your undergrad in aerospace engineering too but ofcourse i do not know either that department exists there or it is good enough.It also depends on the orientation of you.You want to do your M.S. on control systems,propulsion,structure&materials,communication avionics,systems engineeering or another branch? Firsty I think you got to decide on that
