Hello Thrupthi,
In the present times, there are very less jobs for the graduates of aeronautical engineering. Invariably these students then go for other MBA or MS abroad. Very few get placed in India and many of them get placed in place of mechanical engineers. In view of this I would definitely recommend you to opt for computer sciences rather than aerospace engineering. Best wishes to you.

Aeronautical engineering is one of the most challenging branches of engineering. It has a wide scope of growth in the field of engineering. This field is concerned mostly with the technical as well as the mechanisms of the flying aircrafts. This is an emerging field. This field deals with the development of new technologies in aviation and defence systems. This field mainly consists of the construction, designing, working, testing, operation, maintenance of the space crafts, satellites, missiles, space vehicles, etc. , These are the top Aerospace/Aeronautical colleges in India

Hi, Looks like you can get through, but I think if you want to get into such a specialised field, you must choose a better college. The one which has equipment and infra to support this kind of a niche programme. I would suggest you to try at LPU, although I am not sure if the seats are still there. LPU is the only university in India which has set up center for space research with mission control facility. https://www.lpu.in/FullNewsRelease/LPU-sets-up-Center-for-Space-Research-with-Mission-Control-facility.php
This puts it even above some of the IITs!
Although IITs definitely are top notch organisations and have a long track record and

Hello!
A degree in aerospace engineering and a degree in aeronautical engineering both prepare students to design aircraft. In fact, aeronautical engineering is a branch of aerospace engineering. Though the two degree programs teach similar engineering principles, there is a critical distinction between designing for air and space. Aeronautical engineering is actually a type of aerospace engineering, which is split into two main areas:
Aeronautical: Relates to machines that fly within the earths atmosphere, such as planes. Astronautical: Relates to spacecraft such as rockets, space stations and shuttles. My brother has done Aerospace en

Hello!
The two types of aerospace engineers include aeronautical engineers (They work with aircraft that stay within the earth's atmosphere such as airplanes and helicopters. ). And astronautical engineers (They work with aircraft that operate outside of the earth's atmosphere such as rockets, satellites, and other and spacecraft. ). A degree in aerospace engineering should cover them both. My brother has done Aerospace engineering from LPU. Fee per semester is 98,000 INR without scholarship.

Hello!
Aeronautical engineering tends to focus on flight and activities within an atmosphere, a more dedicated field of aerospace studies that usually includes the atmosphere, but also extends into applications in space, where there is no atmosphere. Both Aerospace and Aeronautical Engineering are good branches. If you want to work in the aircraft building industry then aerospace engineering is the right course for you. However, if you look forward to work in the space industry, then aeronautical engineering is the right branch for you. My brother has done Aerospace engineering from LPU.

Hello Shiv, the placements for fresh pass outs of aerospace engineering are indeed facing huge problems. At least at the present, in India, there are no credible opportunities for getting employed as an aerospace engineer. As a result, majority of the students opt for either of the two choices of going abroad for doing MS or doing MBA. However this situation is likely to change four years from now because of the different policies that the government of India has taken to open up aerospace sector for private enterprise. I hope this helps. Best wishes to you.

Hello Srilatha, Actually speaking there is no hard and fast rule as to which branch of Diploma will be making a student eligible for pursuing graduation in engineering in aeronautical engineering. Some States allow even B.Sc. Science students to have a go at the lateral admission in to aeronautical engineering stream. What matters perhaps most is that irrespective of the branch which you select for Diploma, you should score well and also you need to score well if your state conducts an entrance exam for all those who are desirous of lateral admission. Best wishes to you.
