  1. I received by B.S. in Aeronautical and Astronautical Engineering from Purdue. I’m not sure if it’s still true, but Purdue used to boast that NASA had more astronauts from Purdue than any other non-military school.

  2. Purdue’s reputation as a top engineering school continues to grow, especially in Aeronautics and Astronautics. It is one of the main schools from which we recruit for NASA. I know the same holds true for Space-X, Blue Origins and other aerospace companies. The rigorous and practical curriculum at the school makes Purdue grads very well-prepared for the engineering work environment.
