The Undergraduate Certificate in Aerospace Engineering provides a focused multidisciplinary experience in an emerging area of aerospace engineering involving design, development, and implementation of aerospace technologies. Many local and national employers recruit graduates with expertise in aerospace engineering, including Gulfstream Aerospace, Boeing, Delta Airlines, Lockheed Martin, SpaceX, Northrop Grumman, the U.S. Department of Defense, Textron, Rockwell Collins Aerospace, and others.This certificate provides engineering students with the opportunity to specialize their study towards aerospace engineering and technologies.
In addition to taking courses, students will have opportunities to participate in the UGA Student Chapter of the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics (AIAA) activities including meetings, field trips, competitions, and social events.
