Undergraduate
Start your career in aerospace engineering
The University of Michigan offers an internationally-recognized undergraduate aerospace engineering program.
Students work together on an array of aerospace and other engineering projects. Undergraduate research is an important part of the Michigan experience. Students have opportunities to get involved in research within aerospace or elsewhere at the university.
TAILOR TO YOUR NEEDS
Students can tailor to their own interests by choosing electives from advanced aerospace courses, or from courses in a wide range of other technical areas, including: aerodynamics; helicopters; air vehicle systems; rocket and spacecraft propulsion; orbital dynamics and satellite control; materials and advanced composites; and computer and information systems for aerospace vehicles.
Students can also choose a combined degree program that offers them two bachelor’s degrees.
