I am thinking about majoring in aerospace engineering, but I am entirely opposed to working on any missiles/fighter jets/things that will be used to kill people. If I were to work at a large corporation like Boeing, Lockheed, etc, would I be able to decide only to work on commercial air/spacecraft, or do they make you work on anything?
