COURSE DESCRIPTION
Your career in aerospace engineering
Are you ready to take off in your new aerospace engineering career? You’ll design aircraft, develop propulsion systems, research new materials, test new engines, develop spacecraft and plan maintenance courses.
What you will study
In this industry-focused course you’ll gain specialist skills in the analysis, design, and operation of sophisticated aerospace hardware and software.
In this industry-focused degree you’ll gain specialist skills in the analysis, design, and operation of sophisticated aerospace hardware and software.
You’ll study a broad range of areas such as aerodynamics, aerospace materials and structures, aerospace systems, design, dynamics and control, thermodynamics, and propulsion.
Elective studies will allow you to tailor the course to suit your areas of interest and enhance your career opportunities.
Sustainability issues are built into multiple areas of the course. This increases your employability as there is increasing demand for long-term engineering solutions in this industry.
As an RMIT graduate you’ll have the analytical, technological, and design skills required to practise aerospace engineering. You’ll also learn to appreciate the wider social implications of the engineering profession.
You’ll have the opportunity to design creative solutions through inspiring and sustainable design-and-build projects, as well as taking part in the Engineers Without Borders Challenge – a humanitarian-focused course offered in all RMIT engineering degrees.
To ensure you graduate job-ready, you’ll also have an opportunity to undertake a work-integrated learning (industry experience) elective.
Career
In an aerospace engineering career you can design aircraft, develop propulsion systems, research new materials, test new engines, develop spacecraft, or plan maintenance programs.
As a graduate from this degree you’ll be ready to work as a high-level engineer on a wide range of Australian and international projects.
Aerospace engineers also have skills in fields of advanced technology that are in high demand in non-aerospace organisations including the automotive industry, power generation industry, software support companies, and research organisations.
EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTION
Since its establishment in 1887, Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology University (RMIT) has been meeting the needs of the community surrounding it. Originally a Working Men’s College, RMIT showed its flexibility during World War Two, training over 20,000 servicemen in communications to help with the war effort.Now, it is a true pioneer in international education, championing cross-border study opportunities with campuses in various countries. Granted formal university status in 1992, RMIT is ranked 21st in the world for universities that are less than 50 years old.RMIT is the largest higher education institution in Australia, currently with more than 82,000 students. With nearly 20% of those students coming from overseas, it is a university that truly welcomes diversity and is a melting pot of different cultures. RMIT has three campuses in Vietnam, a European hub in Barcelona, an office in Indonesia, and partners with 200+ institutions in 42 countries to provide study opportunities worldwide.
