Aerospace Engineering: Finding the Right Minor

[AE2013]

Hi,

I am new to this forum, so forgive me if this question has been asked before.

I am currently a freshman in college and plan to go into aerospace engineering soon enough (declaration of field comes 2nd semester sophomore year).
Obviously, my major is going to be in aerospace engineering, but what i would like to know is what minor would best coincide with this major.

Any tips you guys can give would be useful. Thank You.

I would suggest a physics minor, or even a second degree in physics. Engineering is basically just applied physics.

Welcome to the forum! It's great to see that you are already thinking about how to enhance your aerospace engineering degree with a minor. Aerospace engineering is a very technical field, so it might be beneficial to choose a minor that complements it with a more creative or business-oriented focus. Some options could be business management, computer science, or even a foreign language. It really depends on your interests and career goals. I would recommend talking to your academic advisor or reaching out to upperclassmen in your major to get their insights and advice. Good luck with your studies!
