Question
i want to know about aero engineering.by doing aero engineering what jobs could i can reserve.and in aero engineering all the part of an air plane would they teach

Answer
I'm not sure what you mean by "jobs I can reserve"... aeronautical engineers often find jobs in the aerospace industry.  None are reserved.  Check the Boeing or other aerospace company website for job descriptions.  Most courses in aeronautical engineering deal with the physics of flight:  fluid mechanics, aerodynamics, propulsion, thermodynamics, etc. and not so much with parts of the airplane.  A student will learn a lot about how wings and tails fly, but for details on aircraft you would take a class in aircraft design or structural analysis.
