What is
Aeronautical Engineering?
B.Tech in Aeronautical
Engineering is a 4-year undergraduate Aerospace engineering course. Minimum
Eligibility for which is 10+2 examination with science subjects such as Physics,
Chemistry and Mathematics.
Aerospace engineering manages the
plan, design, development, and investigation of the science behind the powers
and physical properties of rockets, aircraft, flying crafts, and shuttle. The
endorsed courses of study and syllabi cover zones like design, plan,
structures, impetus, aerodynamics, streamlined features and frameworks. The
labs and workshops, point by point in the educational programs, have been
confined to take up the difficulties in Industry and concentrate on research
and development. The understudy approaches the most recent adaptations of
numerous analysis and design packages.

Humans have always considered
flight to be the final frontier. We have always been amazed by the bird’s
ability to fly. Thus, we with our intellect have overcome our limitations and
learned the knowledge of flight. Aeronautical Engineering deals with the
principles for aircraft and spacecraft. It includes the study of aircraft and
spacecraft designs so that learners can learn how to build and repair crafts.
Specialization |
Description |
Electronic
Systems |
Modern
aerospace systems are set to rely even more heavily on electronic systems in
the future, as autonomous unmanned flying vehicles, the development of
electric aircraft, and the increased use of GPS to enhance flight efficiency
and safety, increase society's dependence on electronics. |
Aerospace
Propulsion |
Propulsion
involves the study of the basic operation and design of aerospace propulsion
devices, including both air-breathing engines and rocket power plants. Engine
components such as inlets, pumps, and/or compressors, combustion chambers,
turbines, and nozzles are also included. |
Aerodynamics
and Fluid Dynamics |
Aerodynamics,
a branch of physics that deals with the motion of air and other gaseous
fluids and with the forces acting on bodies passing through such a fluid.
Aerodynamics seeks, in particular, to explain the principles governing the
flight of aircraft, rockets, and missiles |
Instrumentation
And Communication |
Instrumentation
engineers are expected to work with data acquisition and sensor systems,
Calibrating and Maintenance of the equipment etc. There might be various
measurement systems in the avionics industry, the primary variables being
velocity, length, torque etc. |
Navigational
Guidance and Control Systems |
Guidance,
navigation and control is a branch of engineering dealing with the design of
systems to control the movement of vehicles, especially, automobiles, ships,
aircraft, and spacecraft. |
What is B.Tech Aeronautical Engineering Admission Process?
B.Tech Aeronautical
Engineering admissions are done through entrance examination mode or direct
admission through quota. The step-by-step process to get admitted through
entrance examinations are given below.
Entrance Exam Based Admission
The most popular
engineering entrance exams in the country are JEE Main and JEE Advanced, which
are required for admission into primarily public universities. Private
institutes also conduct their own examinations or rely on the national/ state
level entrance exams. The guide to apply for entrance exam-based admission is
as follows.
