DEPARTMENT OVERVIEW
The Department of Aerospace and Ocean Engineering is a unique blend of two disciplines that takes advantage of commonality in the analysis and design of aerospace and ocean vehicles. Undergraduate and graduate degrees are offered in both disciplines. The Department has 17 faculty working in aerodynamics, hydrodynamics, structural mechanics, dynamics and control, and multidisciplinary design optimization. We have a yearly graduation rate of some 100 Bachelor's, 25 Master's and 15 Doctorate degrees. All faculty are actively engaged in our broad research program, which has annual expenditures of $3.5 million, and all teach at the undergraduate and graduate levels. The Department has extensive facilities including world class wind-tunnels, water tunnels, structural test equipment, high-performance computer systems, and state-of-the-art spacecraft simulators
