KENNESAW, Ga. | May 15, 2025

The Board of Regents of the University System of Georgia today approved a Bachelor of Science in Aerospace Engineering degree program at 抖阴短视频, beginning in the Fall 2025 semester.

Housed within the Southern Polytechnic College of Engineering and Engineering Technology (SPCEET), the new degree program becomes just the second of its kind in Georgia and helps address the workforce demands of a rapidly growing industry. According to PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC), Georgia ranks among the top five states for aerospace manufacturing, and the Bureau of Labor Statistics estimates the job market for aerospace engineers to grow by 6% nationally and by 9.6% in Georgia by 2033.

鈥淔ueled by expanding national and local aerospace demands, KSU is perfectly poised to launch a Bachelor of Science in Aerospace Engineering degree program,鈥� SPCEET Dean Lawrence Whitman said. 鈥淕iven that 68% of our graduates remain in Georgia five years post-graduation, this new program promises a significant and positive impact on the state's workforce and economy.鈥�

KSU鈥檚 program will build off of the success of its highly sought-after aerospace engineering minor, which currently serves more than 250 students. The bachelor鈥檚 program will provide students with opportunities to engage in cutting-edge research, collaborate with industry leaders, and develop the skills needed to succeed in the aerospace sector.

In recent years, KSU graduates have launched their careers with global aerospace companies including Lockheed Martin, Delta TechOps, Gulfstream, Boeing, and Northrop Grumman, among others.

鈥湺兑醵淌悠� is powering Georgia's aerospace future,鈥� said Marwan Al-haik, chair of KSU鈥檚 Department of Mechanical Engineering. 鈥淲ith demand for aerospace engineers outpacing supply, this new program provides critical access to high-paying jobs that are projected to spur even more export growth. This collaboration means students learn how to become economic drivers in the aerospace boom that has surged by 224% since 2006.鈥�
