Re: Aeronautical Engineer Qualifications
Aeronautical engineers design, develop and test aircraft for commercial airlines, the military and businesses. Aeronautical engineers use the procedures, technologies, and theories involved with air travel to create aircraft and propulsion systems. Required Education - Bachelor's degree in aeronautical or aerospace engineering is usually required, although some employers may accept an equivalent degree in a related field A program accredited by the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET) may be required to later earn licensure. Other Requirements Professional engineering licensure required for some positions Projected Job Growth (2012-2022) 7% (for all aerospace engineers) Licensure Requirements- College graduates must take two examinations and accrue four years of work experience in order to become a licensed professional engineer (PE). Graduates only need to get their PE credential if they are going to work directly with the public. Graduates earn the title of engineer in training (EIT) after completing the first exam, which can be taken any time after schooling is complete. Once EITs have completed the required experience, they may take the second exam to become professional aeronautical engineers. Employment Outlook and Salary Information According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), job opportunities for aerospace engineers were projected to increase 7% from 2012-2022, which is slower than average. As of May 2013, aerospace engineers, including aeronautical engineers, made a median annual salary of $103,870, per BLS reports. |
