Our Bachelor of Science (BS) programs in Mechanical Engineering (MEEN) and Aeronautical & Astronautical Engineering (AAEN) are designed to do more than just teach you the basics. We want you to:
- Build a strong foundation in math, physics, and core engineering principles.
- Dive deep into your major—whether it’s mechanical systems or aircraft and spacecraft design.
- Learn how to solve real-world problems using hands-on tools like simulations, experiments, and design software.
- Develop the skills to design and innovate with safety, sustainability, and cost in mind.
Within a few years of earning your degree, you’ll be ready to:
- Take on leadership roles in engineering or related fields—or even start your own company.
- Work on diverse teams to tackle real-world challenges.
- Communicate your ideas clearly to different audiences.
- Make ethical, sustainable decisions that positively impact your community.
- Keep learning and stay up-to-date with the latest tech.
- Think globally and solve problems in our interconnected world.
With a degree from N.C. A&T's MEEN or AAEN programs, you'll be ready to jump into careers in design, testing, development, and research; technical marketing and engineering management; government agencies like NASA or the Department of Defense; or top companies like Boeing, Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman and GE Aerospace.
While enrolled, you’ll also have access to internships and co-ops that give you real-world experience before you even graduate. And if grad school is your next move, you’ll be well-prepared for top programs around the world.
