Can somebody answer these questions about aerospace engineers?!?
-What degrees needed to become one?
-What is there starting salary?
-Do you need experience if applying for nasa
answer 1. minimum B.Eng for the civil industry, minimum M.Sc or Phd if you want to get into the high tech stuff. My propulsion professor worked at NASA and he was an honour’s grad from CalTech…
answer 2. check out salary.com an aerospace engineer’s starting salary would depend heavily on what city you are employed and what company employs you. you can end up working far below or above the average.
answer 3. you always need experience before applying to any aero job. (kind of sad, I know, but it’s the hard truth for any job these days). Based on personal experience, to get your foot through the door, you need to either know someone that is there to refer you in or taken some kind of co-op internship experience. However, stellar grades do help in finding that first job.
