Aerospace Engineering

You can finish your bachelor’s and master’s in five years, completing a few years of your undergraduate program before adding in graduate courses your senior year to count toward both degrees. 

Throughout both programs, you’ll have access to progressive and cutting-edge facilities at Case Western Reserve—and you’ll be mentored by renowned faculty who will support you as you delve into concepts such as aircraft design, aerodynamics, fluid mechanics, combustion science and more. 

They’ll prepare you for careers supporting reusable launch vehicles, high-speed transport, human exploration and development of space, and even microelectromechanical sensors and control systems for advanced flight. 

You should apply to the dual bachelor’s and master’s program in aerospace engineering after completing 75 semester hours of undergraduate coursework and prior to attaining senior status (completion of 90 semester hours). Normally, this means you will submit your application in the sixth semester of your bachelor’s program (usually the spring term of junior year). 

The application process typically requires:

• Successful admittance to CWRU as an undergraduate

• Completed online application

• Statement of objectives

• Three letters of recommendation

• Approved Planned Program of Study (PPOS) form
