Semester study abroad programming is not available for aerospace engineering students on a four-year graduation plan. However, you can declare the five-year Global + Co-op track, which allows you to earn a BS in aerospace engineering sciences with a minor in computer science, engineering management, or engineering entrepreneurship. You will benefit from robust training in CS or engineering management, significant experience abroad, and in-depth career exposure before you graduate. Plus, you won't pay tuition during your Co-op semester and can expect to be paid for your work. 

Global Co-op: Computer Science Track:

Study abroad options for this program are the same as those for computer science majors (expand the CS section below). While abroad, you'll focus on upper-division coursework toward your CS minor and outstanding H&SS coursework.

• During your first three years, you will follow the same aerospace undergraduate curriculum as your peers while also completing prerequisite and foundation courses for the CS minor.
• Early in the spring semester of your third year, you will declare the Global + Co-op track and apply to study abroad the following fall semester. You must have a 3.0 GPA to declare this track to ensure the competitiveness of your co-op application!
• During the fall semester of your fourth year, you will participate in a computer science-focused semester study abroad program. 
• In the spring semester of your fourth year, you will return to the U.S. to participate in a full-time, industry-based co-op. CU cannot guarantee you a co-op placement but will provide resources to guide your application. 
• You will return to CU for full-time study in your fifth year to complete any outstanding requirements for your aerospace engineering degree and computer science minor. 

Global Co-op: Engineering Management/Entrepreneurship Track:

Study abroad options for this program are the same as those for engineering management majors (expand the EMEN section below); entrepreneurship students should work with their advisors on course planning. While abroad, focus on upper-division coursework toward your EMEN minor and outstanding H&SS coursework.

Complete your co-op before the fifth year, which must be taken on the ÍÃ×ÓÏÈÉú´«Ã½ÎÄ»¯×÷Æ· campus.

Computer science majors have relative flexibility. Since CS courses are in high demand around the world, it's highly recommended students complete data structures, algorithms, and software design before studying abroad. These prerequisite courses provide access to numerous upper-division CS elective courses.

Integrated Design Engineering (IDE) majors can study abroad all over the world! Since each IDE major follows a different curricular path, IDE students should explore program options based on their IDE emphasis. For example, an IDE major with an emphasis in mechanical engineering should focus on the programs listed for mechanical engineering majors. Using the , IDE students can find IDE core courses (GEEN) taught abroad as well as courses associated with their emphasis (e.g. ECEN, EVEN, MCEN, etc.). Finally, a number of IDE concentrations also offer coursework abroad, maximizing study abroad opportunities for e+ students.

When should I go? 

Depending on your particular degree plan, either semester of your sophomore or junior year should be feasible for a study abroad semester.
