<p>When you have decided how hands-on (or cerebral) you want to be in your early engineering jobs, you can then look for college or university courses that suit your starting academic level and your career aspirations.</p>
<p>Some airlines provide technical apprenticeships that combine a college course with practical learning at their engineering base. Often an airline will work with a specific college and choose its apprentices from students enrolled there.</p>
<p>If you enrol in a university engineering degree course and are interested in a military career, you can apply for your studies to be sponsored by your chosen military aviation service. Naturally, that also entails passing the military selection process.</p>
<p>Some big aerospace companies provide scholarships or other forms of support for aeronautical engineering undergraduate students, often combined with an internship.</p>
<p>Training and sponsorships are likely to be announced or advertised within this Career Portal, so keep your eyes open for suitable opportunities. And good luck with your career!<br />
