The doctoral program balances basic and applied aerospace science and technology, preparing students for research, industry and government. Faculty strengths include vehicle dynamics and control, wind energy, celestial mechanics, GPS and spacecraft systems.
A bachelor's degree is enough to apply, since there is no master's-only track. Doctoral students take a qualifying exam and complete a dissertation.
A special committee of faculty guides each student, and progress is tracked through milestones set by the Graduate School and the field. Applicants should look closely at faculty research interests before applying, because the fit between a student's goals and the available mentors shapes the whole experience.
