As of right now I want to major in aerospace engineering in college. I want to do so because the opportunities that a degree from that major would be near limitless. I could help advance the technological powers humans have and help in the exploration of outer space. I hope to become an aerospace engineer at a company such as NASA, JPL, or Space X out of college.
