Graduate students seeking a master's or doctorate degrees to augment their undergraduate or graduate education can take advanced courses in:
- Aerodynamics and fluid mechanics
- The study of airflow over a body, such as the wings on an aircraft or spacecraft.
- Aeroelasticity and structural dynamics
- The study of how inertial, elastic and aerodynamic forces interact.
- Flight mechanics and control
- The study of how forces affect a flight vehicle, how it responds to those forces and how to modify the vehicle to achieve the desired goals.
- Propulsion and combustion
- The study of creating mechanical power using internal combustion engines, jet engines, turbomachinery, propellers, wings, fins, and wheel and axles to generate force causing motion.
- Structural mechanics and materials behavior
- The study of the stress and strain on the components of a flight vehicle.
- System design and optimization
- The study of the application of algorithms to improve the performance, weight, reliability and/or cost of aircraft and spacecraft systems.
