Do i need calculus for aerospace engineering?

Question

>>????

Answer 1

You certainly do. However don't let that stop you from doing it!

Honestly, many of the math concepts I "learned" in school, I only fully understand once I am forced to use them in the real world.

Any type of engineering like aerospace, mechanical, electrical, civil, structural etc will require calculus. I'm not certain but I think fields like chemical and environmental engineering require less.

Good luck!

Answer 2

Oh yeah... Loads of it. Aerospace engineering deals is generally the toughest branch of engineering, and deals witha ll sorts of velocity diagrams, fluid mechanics etc, that requires a lot of calculus. here is a link to a NASA careers page, that explicitly states the same. http://quest.nasa.gov/aero/background/ca...

Answer 3

i think so  

Answer 4

Oh yes!

Fluid dynamics is full of calculus.  But don't let that stop you.  If you want to become and aerospace engineer, follow your dream.  

Free advice:  really take the time to LEARN the calculus when you take it.  As opposed to just passing the next exam.  Reason:  it may be a few semesters before you need to apply that calculus knowledge in an engineering class, and the professor will assume that you KNOW your calculus.  Trust me, you don't want to have to relearn math while learning the engineering.
