Aerospace & Aeronautics

Aerospace engineering spans a broad range of interdependent fields, covering aerodynamics, avionics, structural and materials science, propulsion and launch systems, and flight control systems.

This exacting industry has deep roots in the Pacific Northwest, which, historically, has been home to many aviation pioneers and innovators. Today, aerospace manufacturing, research, and development continue on a massive scale, supported by manufacturers, component suppliers, and research facilities.
