Just started at BO, wanting advice for furthering my career!
Hi! I just recently joined Blue Origin as a technician. It’s my first aerospace gig! I just found out that BO has a program to pay for employees’ schooling. I got a Bachelor’s in Astronautics - AE (don’t ask why I’m a tech haha, I’m just fortunate to finally get my foot in the door regardless of role). I’ve been thinking about doing a Master’s in Aerospace. I’m not sure what concentration, but I think I’m between Structures & Materials or Propulsion. I’m fortunate to work weekend shift so I think a Master’s would be beneficial down the long road since it could fit in my schedule?
I was wanting to post this to hear any and all opinions regarding my case! If you were in my shoes and situation, would you do the Master’s? Why or why not? What concentration would be beneficial/highest demand for the future of the aerospace industry? Again, any and all words would be extremely appreciated!
