Aerospace Engineers Description: Perform a variety of engineering work in designing, constructing, and testing aircraft, missiles, and spacecraft. May conduct basic and applied research to evaluate adaptability of materials and equipment to aircraft design and manufacture. May recommend improvements in testing equipment and techniques. Riasec code: IRS Career cluster: science, technology, engineering & mathematic. I choose this career because it is about science, mathematic which are subjects I like.

About Aerospace Engineers Aerospace engineers work in various settings depending on their job description. I think I should expect the sort of hours when work with the testing of components and structures often work outside at test sites or in laboratories where controlled testing conditions can be created. I will typically work on the factory floor itself, assembling components and making sure that they conform to design specifications. I will expect to find satisfaction in this career.
