After almost three years of proposal writing, submission and approvals, the Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering department at New Mexico State University will now offer a graduate program in Aerospace Engineering (AE) – the only one available in the state and in western Texas, as well. As the final step, the New Mexico State Board of Finance gave its approval to the proposal for Master's and Doctoral degrees at its December 15, 2009 meeting. The Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering Department's new program will accept prospective MS and PhD students starting in Fall 2010. Details of the program will be posted in a later publication. Basically, the initial curriculum will include courses typically offered in the field. A comparison study done as part of proposal preparation helps define the program's structure.
