Aeronautical Engineering
Four Years Degree Course
A.M.Ae.S.I at par with B.E/B.Tech.
Ever
since planes started flying in the
skies, aviation has been a glamorous
vocation sought after by many, but
achieved by only a few selected
persons. Aeronautical engineering is a
branch of engineering which deals with
the design and development of flying
vehicles in the air such as aircrafts,
helicopters, rockets, missiles etc and
operations of those vehicles.
Aeronautical engineering, in addition
to air vehicles makes valuable
contributions into the other
industrial fields such as ground
vehicles in the form of research,
development and design. Thus,
aeronautical engineers have various
opportunities to find a job in Defence
and aircraft industries to automotive
industry.
Graduates of aeronautical engineering
work in all areas of the aircraft and
airline industries. They also work in
other exiting areas such as motor
vehicle production and in the energy
industry. In India, large transport
and aviation companies employ
aeronautical engineers, as do the
smaller companies who produce
components and services. Air forces
across the globe also employ
aeronautical engineers.
Job
Prospects and career options
