Aerospace Engineering

The traditional employment opportunities are the aeronautical and space industries, companies specialized in industrial design and production, Formula 1 and in general all motorsport, or in all those sectors where aerodynamics and fluid dynamics in general, lightweight structures and innovative technologies characteristic of aerospace applications are relevant.
Further career opportunities are represented by pilot training companies using flight simulators, airport management companies and aircraft design and maintenance companies;
In the field of air traffic management and control activities, job opportunities can be found within airlines, regulatory, control and certification bodies as well as airport management companies;
As a freelancer, the junior aerospace engineer can operate as an aeronautical consultant or, more generally, as an industrial consultant, or as a mechanical designer.

The certification of the Degree Course to the EASA PART 66 requirements has extended the professional opportunities to all those companies operating in the aeronautical maintenance sector, notoriously characterized by a good job offer. In the maintenance field, the other main job opportunities involve aeronautical maintenance companies, aircraft operators, aeronautical regulatory and control bodies (ENAC).
