@osuprof – Thanks very much for your advice. Coincidentally, in talking through “Plan B” options, my DS also mentioned that he’s interested in computer science as well, so he has enrolled in some C++ classes. Do you have any advice/perspective on if a few classes will be sufficient or if he should pursue a computer science degree? Any more specific advice you can share on specific languages or classes he should take? Ultimately, he really loves engineering, but Aero-related companies do a lot of software/simulation work as well, so he’s thinking that having more coding skills will broaden his eligibility. At this point, he’d be thrilled with any professional job whether it’s Aero Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or software-related.
