What future does aeronautical engineering have in the world?

Question

how can I ENTER into NASA through aeronautical engineering?please give me detail of entrance exam (if any),age,any website for same,any other qualification etc.

Answer 1

....well, to start with you need an aeronautical engineering degree, so I'd start off with at least four years of university if I were you.

Grade Level Requirements for GS-7 through GS-15

GS-7: In addition to the basic education requirement:

a. One year of appropriate professional experience at least equivalent to GS-5; or

b. One full academic year of graduate level education in an appropriate field; or any equivalent combination of experience and graduate study; or

c. Completion of all requirements for a bachelor's degree which meets one of the following SUPERIOR ACADEMIC ACHIEVEMENT STANDARDS:

1.  A standing in the upper third of your college class or major subdivision (e.g., school of engineering) at the time you apply; or

2. A grade point average of 2.90 of a possible 4.0 or its equivalent for all courses completed, either: (a) at the time of application; or (b) during the last two years of your undergraduate curriculum; or

3. A grade point average of 3.5 of a possible 4.0 or its equivalent for all courses completed in a qualifying major field of study, either: (a) at the time of application; or (b) during the last two years of your undergraduate curriculum; or

4. Election to membership in one of the national honorary societies (other than freshman societies) that meets the requirements of the Association of College Honor Societies.

Seniors may be rated provisionally eligible under c-2. or 3. if they have the required average after the junior year. They will be required to submit proof that they maintained the required average in their senior year-, or



d. Twelve months of student trainee experience (does not include periods of leave without pay) that includes at least one work period (two months or 320 hours) equivalent to GS-5 or at least 15 months of appropriate student trainee experience which includes one work period equivalent to the GS-4 level; or  

e. For engineering positions, successful completion of a five-year program of study (i.e. one designed to be completed in no less than five years) of at least 160 semester hours;  

f. For engineering positions, if you have a professional engineering degree, up to 12 months of appropriate experience gained as a technician or technologist equivalent to the GS-5 level or higher may be credited in qualifying for GS-7; or  

g. Successful completion of all requirements for two bachelor's degrees, one in an appropriate field of science or engineering; or  

h. Six months aggregate of specialized experience or training, including three months gained after the junior year in a subprofessional, semiprofessional or technician status, which may have been obtained in a laboratory or elsewhere during a summer period or assisting a professor, or on active military duty; or  

i. Honors or elective positions indicating superior leadership other than scholastic, provided that your academic standing was in the upper half of your graduating class; or  

j. Patterns of courses which have unusual preparatory value or direct relatedness to the particular aerospace specialty for which you are being considered; or

k. Creative research aptitude or special talent for NASA scientific or engineering work, as shown by evidence obtained and documented by means of certifications from college professors or officials, standardized questionnaires or similar techniques.



GS-9: In addition to the basic education requirement:

a. One year of professional experience in an appropriate field at least equivalent in difficulty and responsibility to GS-7 level in the Federal service within or closely related to the aerospace technology specialty for which application was made; or

b. Completion of all requirements for a master's or equivalent graduate degree in an appropriate field or;  

c. Two full academic years of graduate education in an appropriate field; or

d. An equivalent combination of experience and graduate study.

GS-11: In addition to the basic education requirement:

a. One year of professional experience in an appropriate field at least equivalent in difficulty and responsibility to GS-9 level work in the Federal service within or closely related to the aerospace technology specialty for which application is made; or  

b.  Completion of all requirements for a doctoral degree (Ph.D. or equivalent) in an appropriate field; or

c.  Three full academic years of graduate education in an appropriate field; or

d.  An equivalent combination of experience and graduate study; or

e. For Research Positions only: completion of all requirements for a master's or equivalent degree in an appropriate field.

GS-12 through GS-15: In addition to the basic education requirement:

a.  One year of professional experience in an appropriate field at least equivalent in difficulty and responsibility to the next lower grade in the Federal service within or closely related to the aerospace technology specialty for which application is made; or  

b.  Any equivalent combination of experience and graduate study  

c.  For GS-12 research positions only: completion of all requirements for a doctoral degree (Ph.D. or equivalent) in an appropriate field.
