Dual Degree of Bachelor of Science in Aerospace Engineering / Bachelor of Science in Materials Science Engineering

Illinois Tech’s Bachelor of Science in Aerospace Engineering/Bachelor of Science in Materials Science Engineering dual degree program allows students the opportunity to pursue studies and complete both degrees in as few as five years.
This program provides students more job opportunities in engineering, giving them a greater breadth of knowledge in the engineering field. 
The undergraduate aerospace engineering program explores both the design and manufacturing of aircraft, as well as the design and flight of vehicles beyond Earth’s atmosphere. In combination with our undergraduate materials science and engineering program, students will additionally develop a deeper understanding of the structure, properties, processing, and service behavior of engineering materials, including metallic, ceramic, polymeric, and composite materials.
Students will have a thorough knowledge of engineering principles and methods to drive creativity and innovation through such subjects as aerospace materials, computational mechanics, propulsion, and spacecraft dynamics.
