Master Degree in Aeronautical Engineering with Bachelor Degree in Electrical > Feasible or Not ??
Master Degree in Aeronautical Engineering with Bachelor Degree in Electrical > Feasible or Not ??
(OP)
Hello there
I am an undergraduate Electrical & Electronic engineer. I am planning to have my post graduation & doctoral (if possible) in Aeronautical Engineering.
Now I am seeking your kind suggestions on :
1. whether my undergrad degree will conform/match with the master degree in Aeronautical engineering ?
2. whether I would be over-looked in job market as there will be available aeronautical engineers having both degrees ?
3. whether I should proceed to master degree over my core electrical disciplines(say, Control Theory or Communication Systems)
and then switch to Aircraft Industry ?
I am a very hardworking person with fast adaptability. I can grasp new critical concepts & ideas very fast. I wish to spend my life studying in research level in aircraft industry.
Please help me with your kind experienced thoughts. Thank you.

1. Your undergrad courses will be ok (you took physics, chem, statics, dynamics, materials science...?). But you will want some more mechanics of materials, stress analysis, and a lot of fluids and aerodynamics courses to be prepped for aero work. She was able to waive the aerodyanamics, as her focus was on stress analysis, but that just meant she took a lot more undergrad structures/mechanics of materials courses.
2. Having the dual major never hurt her, but her EE background was not much use in structures/FEA.
3. You might take an Aero Master's degree with emphasis on controls - from the modelling and sim side, which would be the aero emphasis. Your EE background would definitely give you a leg up on some of this.

for your invaluable suggestions.
These will definitely help me for initial planning.
Further I seek your kind suggestion on something more broadened & decisive issue :-
1. I am an inhabitant of a 3rd World country(Bangladesh), have completed Bachelor degree with scholarships from a local Private University(United International University) with a CGPA of 3.68/4 where Grade 4 == 90% or above marks.I passed my school & college from "Cadet College".
2. I am the only son of my family & you may be surprised hearing that son is to take all the responsibilities (financial & others...). My father died when I had 10 years of age.
3. I can pass my life simply with a local usual job. But I have a borne interest on Research level work/studies. I want to gather how,why & what if...type knowledge; wanna see the beauty of modern science & technology and want to contribute anyway, anymuch. I could never be satisfied with usual home-office-home circle.
4. I am afraid I would not get full scholarship for Master program with my results in bachelor level. However I am confident of my base of knowledge gathered in bachelor courses which are continuously driving me to go in depth more by taking Higher Education.
5. My family can afford self finance for Chinese degree,"Shenyang Aerospace University" by selling out land properties that my father left out. It is quite tough to afford costs for European or North American degree without Full/partial Scholarship.
Here I am in a situation of decision making to take risk for a Chinese degree in Aeronautical Engineering >> whether I can take the challenge with respect to the Chinese Degree evaluation & Job availability in near future???
I can assure you that,from my side there would be no lack of hardworking and determination.I have strong basics of Control Systems Theory and Embedded System Design at undergrad level.
And above all, I am quite a tough guy while I am in the right track/direction.
The way you suggested to my previous query, I am hopeful to have the right decision based on your wise guidance.
Thanks for patiently going through the long story despite your valuable time.
