Each school, each department has its own requirements. Only the schools can answer definitively.  Generally speaking, however, an electronics engineer has probably not studied the subjects required for aerospace masters programs such as fluid mechanics, stress and strain, dynamics, kinematics, gas dynamics, etc.  Check the engineering school websites.
