Which has a better scope and why: Aeronautical Engineering or Automobile Engineering?

Aerospace and automotive are two major manufacturing industries - also old industries born over a century ago; they have drastically evolved in the past 30 years in terms of product performance, leveraging high technologies and significantly reducing time-to-market. Both industries rely on rigorous quality requirements, advanced materials, electronics and embedded systems, mechanical components, engines, structures, (.) as well as robust New Product Introduction (NPI) and enabling Product Life-cycle Management (PLM). Aerospace is a generic term that includes commercial aircraft, planes and helicopters, military and defence, ground equipment and space. The aerospace industry has a strong certification and compliance requirement, with consequences on development cost and technology solutions. The automotive industry requires perhaps less formal processes, though there is a significant focus on compliance and regulations. Overall both have a great scope in varied sector domains.
