<p>An actual language, not a programming language. What language would you suggest an Aerospace Engineer learn?</p>
<p>I feel that it is beneficial for anyone, regardless of occupation, to learn a language. Choose any you wish.</p>
<p>Certain professions may derive more benefit from being multilingual than engineers might, but I think that knowing another language is always helpful. Choose whichever one interests you most.</p>
<p>Vulcan would be good.</p>
<p>It depends a lot on the industry and discipline. </p>
<p>For example, if you are interested in civil engineering I might suggest Spanish - most civil engineers (to the best of my knowledge) work domestically, and Spanish is the most useful language in construction in the US. </p>
<p>If you are interested in electrical engineering I would think Japanese or Chinese - they are likely to be either buying your products or selling you components. </p>
<p>If you are interested in aerospace engineering French might be a good choice, as Airbus and Boeing dominate the industry. </p>
<p>If you are doing architectural engineering you might want to consider Arabic or Chinese, as those parts of the world are highly interested in modern and advanced architectural designs.</p>
<p>And so forth.</p>
<p>I do heartily agree that fluency in ANY language is a good idea, provided it does not damage your engineering studies.</p>
<p>
Learning any language (natural or otherwise) is good for anybody. If you have the time and inclination, do it.</p>
