Aeronautical Engineering is the study of the science of flight.  Aerospace Engineering is the same thing with the implied addition of space flight.  For all practical purposes, the terms are interchangeable and include all aspects of aircraft or other flight component design and development.

Following is a list of good engineering schools in the U.S.:
