Aerospace Engineering

Engineering [ Bachelor of Technology ]

Aerospace engineering is the primary field of engineering concerned with the development of aircraft and spacecraft. It is divided into two major and overlapping branches: aeronautical engineering and astronautical engineering.

Aeronautical engineering deals with the aircraft ( the engineer handles the aircraft that remain within the earth atmosphere for example airplanes and helicopters). while Astronautical engineering deals with the aircraft that is outside the earth atmosphere, rockets and satellites are its few example)
