Question
Sir what is the difference between AME and aeronautical engineering study.i want to become astrophysicist how.
If AME stands for Aircraft Maintenance Engineering, it must deal with the repair and maintenance of aircraft, though I have never seen that major in the U.S. so I cannot be sure. Aeronautical Engineering deals with the science of flight. Two different but related subjects. Astrophysics is even more different having to do with physics at high altitudes and outer space.
