<p>Hey, </p>

<p>I am currently a rising sophomore at an all women school ( Mount Holyoke college). I just realized that i want to do aeronautical engineering and i am considering transferring. The problem is i dont know where to transfer. I have a GPA of 3.9 and an excellent academic record but not so great SAT scores. Does anyone have any good suggestions?</p>

<p>Thanks</p>

<p>Aeronautical and Astronautical Research Laboratory (AARL)</p>

<p>The Aeronautical/Astronautical Research Laboratory (AARL) is an aerospace engineering research facility operated by Ohio State University. It is the principal research facility of the College of Engineering’s Department of Aerospace and Astronautical Engineering. It is located on the grounds of Ohio State University Airport, in Columbus, Ohio.</p>

<p>The most prominent area of research at AARL is jet engine test cell design. Under the patronage of GE Aviation, Ohio State Engineering has been at the forefront of jet engine test cell design for over 25 years.</p>

<p>The AARL houses numerous other research facilities, including the Mechanical Engineering Department’s Gas Dynamics and Turbulence Laboratory(GDTL) and Gas Turbine Lab. GDTL works cooperatively with NASA Glenn Research Center and Wright-Patterson Air Force Base researching aeroacoustics and high reynolds number flow related to propulsion. The Gas Turbine Lab is an R&D laboratory that focuses on the development of gas turbine aircraft engines and has an annual budget of over $4 million.</p>
