Baylor offers Aerospace Engineering as an undergraduate degree program and as a concentration in the Department of Mechanical Engineering. This significant part of the School of Engineering and Computer Science (ECS) means new opportunities for our students in this dynamic and high-demand field. Recently, Baylor student teams have won multiple 3D-printed aircraft competitions and robotic drone blimp competitions. Other groups have competed in rocketry competitions such as the Spaceport America Cup, demonstrating strong interest and excellence in these fields. The Aerospace Engineering curriculum consists of courses designed to equip students to work in the aeronautics or astronautics industries. Aerospace Engineering students will study aerodynamics, aerospace structures, air-breathing and rocket propulsion, aircraft flight dynamics, orbital mechanics, and space flight. They will have experience in both aircraft and spacecraft design. Additionally, students will gain core engineering competencies, such as engineering problem-solving skills and knowledge of engineering materials, thermodynamics, numerical methods, dynamic systems, and computer-aided design. Technical electives give students flexibility to explore topics such as computational fluid dynamics, finite element methods, and composite materials.
