Duke Aerospace Certificate

<p>Can anyone give me some information about this and certificates at Duke in general. Is it a strong program? I'd like to study engineering in a liberal arts environment (also looking at Penn, Princeton, Dartmouth, Harvard, Bucknell as safety). Would like to be able to merge engineering and business in a career, and am probably considering getting an MBA. Another question would be if I could get a certificate in business or management as well). Would love to work at Boeing, Northrop Grumman, Lockheed Martin, or similar places to be able to work in finance while also being able to use my engineering background (and I've always loved planes).</p>

<p>Any advice would be awesome!</p>

<p>I’m not sure how a certificate helps you any. If you have an engineering degree, even from a liberal arts college, and an MBA that would be much more marketable than any certificate any either of those two fields would be. The best type of “certification” you can get is real world experience, so work on that.</p>

<p>I would be interest to hear other thoughts on certificate programs. I am really not sure what they are good for.</p>
