<p>Everyone says how MechEs can work aerospace jobs. Can aero's work meche's jobs also?</p>
<p>To me, both degrees are mechanical engineering degrees concentrating on different industries....but I could be wrong.</p>
<p>aerospace is technically a type of mechanical engineering...</p>
<p>elliot go to the post by saturnVrocketo about his dilemma on whether to do aero, mech or civil. i'm like u and want to do either mech or aero. i'm interested in aero because i think it is interesting, but worried b/c of the many "hitches" i have heard with this degree such as cyclical demand for aero engineers, generally lower salary than mech, and problems with aero being a kind of specialty degree like hinmanCEO said.</p>
<p>btw the post title is called "Aeronautics/civil/mechanical engineering" and is in this section (engineering majors)</p>
<p>Civil and mechanical engineers can do stuff with aerospace engineering. It's just a matter of whether you want to design the structure or the jet engine of the aircraft.</p>
