OVERVIEW
Dr. Steven Huebner, program director
The Graduate Certificate in Aerospace is designed for practicing mechanical engineers in the workforce and graduate students pursuing an M.S. in Mechanical Engineering who wish to demonstrate a focus in aerospace related curriculum. The certificate requires the completion of four courses (12 cr hr) from three of four aerospace related subject areas. Students can take these courses remotely. The certificate will develop the technical skills engineers need to conceptualize, design, develop, and test aerodynamic components and systems as well as communicate effectively with specialized engineering teams.
GRADUATE CERTIFICATE IN AEROSPACE ENGINEERING
The graduate certificate in aerospace engineering offers courses focused on fluid dynamics, heat transfer, aerothermodynamics, materials, design, and manufacturing. An understanding of these topics provides the basis for design and development of advanced aerospace systems.
PROGRAM CURRICULUM & REQUIREMENTS
The certificate is structured to require 12 credit hours of course work. A total of four (4) courses from at least three (3) of the subject areas listed under requirements must be successfully completed for the certificate.
