AE explores the evolution of flight, navigation and control, flight fundamentals, aerospace materials, propulsion, space travel, and orbital mechanics. In addition, this course presents alternative applications for aerospace engineering concepts. Students analyze, design, and build aerospace systems and apply knowledge gained throughout the course in a final presentation about the future of the industry and their professional goals.

Additional Expectations: Students enrolling in the Aerospace Engineering course are required to participate in the AMSE Rocketry after school program. The Rocketry program is the hands-on, applied learning lab that extends beyond the classroom. Students are required to attend two days a week (4 hours/week total) in the lab.
