Where are most aerospace jobs?

<p>I was wondering where most aerospace engineering jobs are in the US. I know there are quite a bit in FL where I'm from but what about other parts of the country?</p>

<p>Does Lockhead Martin hire a lot of students from Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University? I want to dot heir 5 year accelerated program for a masters in Aerospace Engineer then get a job at either Lockhead or Boeing.</p>

<p>In the air.</p>

<p>...oh, did you mean <em>geographic</em> locations? My bad. Houston's big. Florida's pretty big. Basically, look up LM and Boeing and Raytheon and such, see where they have offices, and that'll give you some ideas of where jobs are available. I know there are a ton of folks out here in LA, too.</p>

<p>West Coast. DC Metro area.</p>

I'd assume that all the big Aerospace companies hire directly out of ERAU.</p>

<p>CT is big in this area too.</p>

<p>California holds 38% of the US's space market. Many of the major and minor aerospace companies are in California.</p>

<p>Texas has quite a bit of aero jobs too</p>

<p>In large part because of Pratt and Whitney :).</p>

<p>Hey JP, there are a lot of aerospace engineering jobs in the southwest and west US. If you’re looking for any positions available you should check out some of the [BE</a> Aerospace careers](<a href=“http://careers.beaerospace.com%5DBE”>http://careers.beaerospace.com), they have a bunch of positions in California and Arizona and some others closer to the east coast as well.</p>

<p>Hey, Jeff, JP asked that question more than four years ago. I’m guessing he’s probably figured out the answer by now.</p>
