Hello,

The field of Aerospace Engineering is a broader and advanced term compared to Aeronautical Engineering Aerospace engineers develop new technologies for use in aviation defense systems & spacecraft

Aerospace engineering focuses on designing both aircraft and spacecraft and it is a study of all the space crafts used within and out of the earth atmosphere while Aeronautical Engineering is the study of aircraft that operates within the earth atmosphere

Aeronautical Engineering focuses on designing aircraft

helicopters

airplanes and study of subjects such as Thermodynamics

Heat Transfer

In Aerospace Engineering they will learn subjects like- Spacecraft Design Introduction to Astronautics Fundamentals of Jet Propulsion

Spacecraft Dynamics

Either you take the aerospace or aeronautical engineering there are certain subjects common for both the degrees

aerospace engineering is the superset and aeronautical engineering is a subdivision of it

There are immense opportunities for aerospace engineers in countries like the United States of America France the UK and Germany.

Hope it helpful

Thankyou.
