Graduate Program

The Purdue University School of Aeronautics and Astronautics is among the top aerospace engineering programs in the nation and is currently tied for 4^th in the last US News and World Report rankings of aerospace graduate programs. During Fall 2013, we had a total of 421 students with 150 in the PhD program. During the 2013-2014 academic year, the School graduated 90 MS and 21 PhD students. We have had many distinguished alumni pass through our doors. The School began offering non-thesis MS AAE degrees in the fall of 2006 to off-campus students via Purdue's Engineering Professional Education Program; see AAE's Distance Graduate Education Program for more information.
