About this course
Aerospace engineers design, manufacture and operate everything from jets and space exploration vehicles to high-speed cars and hovercraft. You’ll receive training from world-renowned faculty and use advanced facilities including subsonic wind tunnels, propulsion labs and structural testing facilities. Gain practical experience through optional specializations in Management Science, an optional co-operative internship or through participating in the Ryerson Institute for Aerospace Design and Innovation (RIADI), and access opportunities with industry leaders and government agencies like Bombardier, the Canadian Space Agency and more.
Typically, a minimum overall average of 70% establishes eligibility for admission consideration; subject to competition individual programs may require higher prerequisite grades and/or higher overall averages:
English/anglais (ENG4U/EAE4U preferred)
Advanced Functions (MHF4U)
Calculus and Vectors (MCV4U)
Physics (SPH4U)
