看看普度大学 的航空航天学院： Aeronautical and Astronautical Engineering

专业学什么： Aeronautical and astronautical engineers apply their understanding of basic physical phenomena to design and operate aircraft, missiles, and space vehicles. Aeronautics is the design, development, analysis, testing, and production of aircraft for military or civilian markets. Astronautics is the design, development, analysis, testing, and production of rockets, spacecraft, and global space/international systems。航天很有挑战性的专业呢。设计操作飞机，导弹，太空交通工具。航空专业学习的是设计，改进，分析，测试，生产火箭，太空飞船，全球太空或者国际空间系统。

 荣耀：  

Purdue has produced the most aerospace engineering degrees in the U.S. over the past 10 years.  开设航空学位逾十年

22 Purdue alumni have been selected for space flight. 14 of those have been AAE graduates. 22位普渡校友被选中驾驶太空飞船。其中14位毕业于普渡航空航天学院

Purdue’s AAE program is consistently ranked among the nation’s top programs (4th by U.S. News & World Report). : 普渡大学的航空航天学院全国第四

职业前景 As an aeronautical or astronautical engineer, you can work in aviation, defense, space exploration—even the automotive industry. Specific responsibilities for an aeronautical engineer can include: 航空工程学完了主要做下面的事：

1. conducting wind tunnel tests on an aircraft model 对飞机模型进行风动测试

2. designing and analyzing an airplane wing’s structure 设计和分析飞机机翼机构

 3. testing aircraft engines  测试飞机引擎

For an astronautical engineer: 航天工程学完了可以做什么工作？

1. designing power systems for satellites  设计卫星的动力系统

 2. developing communications systems  发展通信系统

3. designing reusable space vehicles  设计研发可用的太空通行工具

NASA chief administrator Charles F. Bolden Jr. speaks with Purdue graduate student Amanda Haapala on Tuesday inside Armstrong Hall in West Lafayette. HaapalaÕs research involved multibody dynamics. With three minutes, you can study transient behavior of entire systems and not just components," says Purdue University aeronautics researcher Steven Collicott, whose experiment on critical surface wetting in microgravity was one of three selected for a free trip on an upcoming suborbital test flight by Blue Origin, an aerospace company in Kent, Washington.

普渡的毕业生和NASA的主要行政官交谈。

 • With 22 alumni who have been selected for space travel, Purdue University has been nicknamed the "Cradle of Astronauts." Purdues astronauts have been a part of more than a third of the 162 human space flights. 22位校友被选参与太空飞行。普度大学被誉为太空飞行员的摇篮。超过1/3的人类太空飞行的宇航员来自普度大学。

 Among those alumni are astronauts Neil Armstrong, the first man to walk on the moon, and Eugene Cernan, the most recent man to walk on the moon. For a full list, go to www.purdue.edu/space/astronauts.html阿姆斯特朗是最著名的校友之一，他是登月第一人。Cernan是最近一位太空漫步的人。

• Purdue President France Córdova was NASA chief scientist from 1993 to 1996. 普渡大学的校长室美国国家航空和宇宙总局的主要科学家 （1993-1996）

• Purdue has received $72 million in research grants from NASA since 2002. 普渡大学获得了来自NASA共72，000，000美金得捐助
