Engineering

Aeronautical Engineering is a fast growing field with technological advancements taking place every day, where aeronautical engineers need a strong hold over CAD software like CATIA, SolidWorks, AutoCAD, etc.; programming proficiency in Python, C+, and MATLAB for aircraft system analysis and development; and other specialised engineering software systems like CAE for system modeling and simulations.

Of course. Aeronautical engineers can easily find high-paying job roles in the defense, space research, and automobile sectors where they can put their skills to use for the research, design, analysis, and maintenance of high-tech systems and high-performance vehicles, including military aircraft, drones, missiles, and satellites.

While not directly, aeronautical engineers can use their engineering skills in the automotive industry as well like for Formula 1 racing looking after its aerodynamics and high-speed vehicle performance.
