** [[Acoustical engineering]] &ndash; includes audio engineering
** [[Aerospace engineering]] &ndash; branch of engineering behind the design, construction and science of aircraft and spacecraft. It is broken into two major and overlapping branches:
*** [[Aeronautical engineering]] &ndash; deals with craft that stay within Earth's atmosphere
*** [[Astronautical engineering]] &ndash; deals with craft that operate outside of Earth's atmosphere

* [[Radiation engineering]]
** [[Nuclear engineering]]
** [[Radiation protection engineering]]
* [[Planetary engineering]] &ndash; planetary engineering is the application of technology for the purpose of influencing the global properties of a planet. The goal of this theoretical task is usually to make other worlds habitable for life. Perhaps the best-known type of planetary engineering is [[terraforming]], by which a planet's surface conditions are altered to be more like those of Earth.
