Aeronautical Engineer

There is no common entrance exam for lateral entry admission in B.Tech after completing Diploma in engineering. Many states conduct LEET exam for lateral entry admission for B.Tech. There are some private universities such as Manipal University, which conduct their own entrance exam for lateral entry for B.Tech.

You are advised to appear for JEE after 10+2 in PCM subjects and aim for B.Tech in aeronautical engineering from IITs, PEC University, Chandigarh, IIST. You may also evaluate doing B.Tech aeronautical engineering from Manipal or Amity University.

Aeronautical engineering is a niche branch of engineering. The opportunities for an aeronautical Engineer is with DRDO, ISRO and other R&D organizations, aeronautical manufacturing companies and it ancillaries, airlines, IT companies with engineering vertical, Indian Air Force, etc.

Aeronautical engineering is a niche branch of engineering, which has good scope in Government, PSU, Airlines and Indian Air Force. You can pursue aeronautical engineering from IIST established by ISRO. The admission is based on JEE Mains score.

Hi,
The starting package in ISRO would be as per the government scale and it also depends on your educational level. For abroad, you can check the skill shortage list for any specific country to see the prospects of getting a job.

The chance is very less although companies such as Quest Global, Honeywell and Textron Avionics do come for placements and take a few students. Other than that you are also allowed to sit for non technical placements.

You are eligible to seek admission in Aeronautical Engineering if you have PCM subjects in GSEB board in class 12th.

Yes, it is possible to join aeronautical engineering with DECE but I would suggest you to continue your UG with electronics and communication engineering as there is wide scope to start your career in aerospace industry after your studies.
Good luck!

There are good number of jobs for aeronautical engineering graduates with aircraft manufacturing and its ancillaries. PSU and private sector companies, airlines, IAF, DRDO, ISRO, IT companies with engineering vertical, etc.

Aeronautical engineering is a niche branch of engineering. It does not have scope and opportunities equivalent to core branches of Engineering. But it still has good scope in PSU, Private sector, airlines, IAF, DRDO, ISRO, IT industry, etc.
