Sign up for new MS in Astronautical  Engineering degree
If you're looking to further your education, or enhance your career in the aerospace industry, Capitol's new Master of Science in Astronautical Engineering might be the perfect fit!
The master's in astronautical engineering will focus on project management, remote sensing, systems engineering, satellite operations and mission planning. Rather than focus on just the theoretical aspects of the subject, classes and projects will feature hands-on learning, and provide the experience necessary for continued career growth and success.
Because of the focus on systems engineering and satellite operations, graduates will be prepared for leadership roles in all phases of a satellite mission design, planning and operations. Learn more about the MSAE program.
