Aero Propulsion Systems Intern Summer 2027

Aero Propulsion Systems Intern

Are you ready to explore aerospace and defense? RTX internships, co-ops and full-time careers give you a strong foundation to work on complex problems, build your skills, and help create a safer, more connected world.

What You Will Do

The Aero Thermal Fluids (ATF) organization is responsible for the aerodynamic design, analysis and performance of components and modules across Pratt & Whitney commercial and military engine product lines.

The Aero Propulsion Systems teams within ATF focus on aerodynamic design and analysis of high-performance military exhaust systems. This includes bypass duct and nozzle aerodynamics, augmentor combustion, exhaust system cooling, propulsion system acoustics and aeromechanics, and commercial engine inlet and nacelle aerodynamics.

We are looking for motivated college interns with strong technical, problem solving and communication skills to help continue Pratt & Whitney's leadership in current and next generation military propulsion systems.

As an Aero Propulsion Systems Intern, you will:

• Perform aerodynamic and thermal analyses to support aircraft engine and technology development
• Process analytical and rig or engine test data to inform design decisions and root cause analyses
• Coordinate analyses, review results with subject matter experts, and communicate findings within a cross-discipline team (aero, design, structures)

What You Will Learn

Engineering interns at Pratt & Whitney work on challenging, meaningful projects across the business. The intern program helps you understand the aerospace industry and learn about the company and its operations.

Our Values

Our values guide our actions, behaviors and performance as we work toward a safer, more connected world. At RTX we value Safety, Trust, Respect, Accountability, Collaboration and Innovation.
