Anything pretty much correlated to aerospace engineering
I have friends who are majoring in aerospace engineering and it’s pretty damn tough, but hey, if you really want to do it, then go for it! :]
NASA is shrinking from lack of vision. They will still be responsibility some hiring but only people that have an advanced degree in aerospace engineering.
The real future is in private space launch and many of the jobs are in Mojave, California.
Do note that aerospace engineering is a very hard field and requires a fanatic level of dedication. If you are a bit of a slacker you may want to look for something simpler.
And at your local university, to have any hops to get into the field, you need to get a degree in something like mechanical engineering.
Be sure you keep a squeeky clean life. NASA and akin agencies do an extremely rigorous background try out. Don’t even bounce a try out or house a bet with your bookie.
