Where a aerodynamics engineer can go next

5 destinations recorded, ranked by how much of the target role a aerodynamics engineer already meets. The closer to the top of Table 1, the less there is to learn.

Aerodynamics engineers perform aerodynamics analysis to make sure the designs of transport equipment meet aerodynamics and performance requirements. They contribute to designing engine and engine components, and issue technical reports for the engineering staff and customers. They coordinate with other engineering departments to check that designs perform as specified. Aerodynamics engineers conduct research to assess adaptability of equipment and materials. They also analyse proposals to evaluate production time and feasibility.

Fig. 2 — the 5 nearest destinations from aerodynamics engineer. Distance from the centre is how much retraining the move takes; the figure on each is how much of that role a aerodynamics engineer already covers. All 5 are listed in the tables below.
  • 70% and above · short step
  • 50 to 70% · real move
  • Below 50% · substantial retraining

Note

How these figures were compiled

Coverage is the share of the target role’s weighted skill requirement a aerodynamics engineer already meets, counting required skills in full and supplementary ones at 0.35. It is directional: the figure for the reverse move differs. Every entry above opens the full comparison for that move: what carries over, what is missing, and where to start. The full method.
