Question
.BASICALLY WHAT ARE THE MAIN DIFFRENCES AMONG AEROSPACE ENGINEERING, AEROSPACE SYSTEM ENGINEERING AND AEROSPACE TECHNOLOGY?

Answer
This is somewhat my opinion....

Aerospace Engineering involves all aspects of aeronautical (atmospheric flight) and space (travel).  Basic conceptual/theoretical issues all from first principles....

Aerospace System Engineering involves the complete flight systems for example the control systems (i.e. mechanisms), electrical systems, etc.

Aerospace Technology has more to deal with hands-on issues regarding managing and maintaining aircraft and/or flight research issues.

That's really the best I can say to differentiate the various names...  you may try googling and wikipedia for this...
