Aeronautical Engineering or Aerospace Engineering: Prospects, Future and Institutes in India

Aeronautical Engineering Course or Aerospace Engineering Course: Prospects, Future and Institutes in India gives a bigger picture of the course and job prospects in India. This is a specialized and improved branch of Mechanical Engineering that involve learning about design and construction of airplanes, aircraft and spacecrafts. This course needs a good understanding of basic mathematics and physics because lot of fundamental principles from physics and mathematics are extensively applied in flight technology. Speaking more practically, don’t have an expectation that you will visit all top Aerospace labs in the world and exposed to all space shuttles in B.Tech or M.Tech. This course will teach your basic principles of flight engineering with few individual experiments. For example, you may have a lab to experiment vibration, propulsion and thermodynamics. You will test all of them individually not in aircraft.

Frankly speaking big job opportunities are rare in this field of engineering. Usually students either move to software companies to got master of engineering in Aerospace Engineering. If your aim is to work for NASA and you are from and in India then you need to be exceptionally talented, lucky, patient and persistent with your engineering degree.

    Raam sir,
    With due respect,i want to known your qualification and present profile,so that i can understand ,why you are less sure about jobs in aerospace

  19. Raam

    Beautifully said. However, thousands of young students all over India stillblindly take up a course in Aeronautical Engineering, dreaming of working at DRDO or ISRO, only to face disappointment at the state of their careers- even getting into a private company related to aerospace is rare.

    I wish people understood that very clearly before taking up this course.

    1. Gazel

      So, you’re saying it’s safer to do Mechanical Engineering instead? If I do that, how do I get back to the Aerospace field that I’m interested in? Please let me know…

    1. Sooraj

      Sir. I like to do aeronautical engineering. But i ask lot persons. They told me. There is no scope to get the job. And the field is very dull. So i kindly requesting to u help me and tell a good collage in (comba) or in kerala.

    2. Raam

      Trust me, go for a BTech in mechanical. You can think of aerospace if you have any thoughts about maters. Limiting yourself to such a narrow stream right at the beginning of your engineering is a very bad option.

      By the way, I am an aeronautical engineer

  89. Ismail

    Sir,

    Thanks for your article on aerospace engineering. The content of the article is very frank and actual. I got call letter for admission from IIT Kharagpur in Aerospace engineering. Actually I am a fresh B.E.civil graduate. As far as my case is concerned, your article is discouraging me in joining Aerospace. Now I will have to rethink in joining in Aerospace engineering.

    Best regards,
    Ismail

    1. Zahid

      Ismail: Sorry for being too frank. I would like to say, though the start is a little risky but you go right way promotions are good. You may will see the higher pay soon. For you if you have alternatives let me know. Otherwise IIT KGP is a cool place to start a new life. You can plan for higher studies and make Boeing or other top companies as your destination.
      It think IITKGP will give you a great platform, and it all depends how big you think after joining there. Most of the student complain and screw too, because of too high expecations.
      Lets discuss if you have other alternatives. Good luck ahead.

    2. Deepak Shukla

      Sir,
      Your content is very frank which helps the students to decide their future very fast as per their capability. Thank for your such a good explanation of the courses.
