B.Tech (Aeronautical Engineering)


B.Tech Aeronautical Engineering Course Details

Aeronautical engineers need to be meticulous and skilled at fixing problems. They should be proficient in designing, computers and be able to communicate clearly. They must be adept at functioning properly and possess strong technical planning abilities.

One of the fascinating job options in India is a B.Tech in Aeronautical engineering. Aviation and Aerospace companies hires the majority of these Aeronautical engineers that have graduated.

The four years, which are broken up into eight semesters, make up the B.Tech Programme in aeronautical engineering. Aeronautical engineering is the right degree for you if you have an interest in helicopter, rocket, missile and aircraft design. Aerodynamics, a crucial area of physical science that pertains to aeronautical engineering, studies the motion of air and how it interacts with moving things like aircraft. You must get a B.Tech in aeronautical engineering before you can work as an aerodynamic engineer.

These courses are in association with Western India Institute of Aeronautics (WIIA) - A DGCA Approved Institute.

Admission Process

Admissions for B.Tech Aeronautical Engineering are made either directly through quotas or through entrance exams.

Engineering knowledge: Use your understanding of physics, math, engineering fundamentals, and your chosen engineering speciality to solve challenging engineering challenges.

Problem Analysis: Use the fundamental concepts of mathematics, the natural sciences, and engineering sciences to identify, formulate, assess research material, and analyse difficult engineering problems.

Solution development and design: Designing complicated engineering problems' solutions as well as system elements or processes that satisfy the required requirements while taking into account public health and safety and cultural, socioeconomic, and environmental factors is essential.

Conduct complex problem investigations: To come to reliable findings, use research-based knowledge and research techniques, such as experiment design, data analysis and interpretation, and information synthesis.

Use of modern tools: Develop, pick, and apply suitable methods, materials, and modern engineerings and IT tools, such as prediction and modelling, to challenging engineering tasks while being aware of their limitations.

Engineers and society:  Assess societal, health, safety, legal, and cultural issues and the resulting obligations pertinent to the professional practice of engineering by using reasoning informed by contextual knowledge.

Variety of experiments are conducted in various laboratories like Aerodynamics, Aircraft Engine Propulsion, Avionics, Aircraft Controls and Navigation,  Aircraft Structure, Rocket Propulsion, Helicopter Engineering, Aircraft Manufacturing, Aircraft Maintenance, Aircraft Design, Aeromodeling etc.

Workshops, Skill development programmes

We conduct workshops of Aeromodelling, model rocketry as a part of skill development programs. Moreover we invite known experts from variety of Aviation and Aeronautical industries. We also conduct soft skill development programs as well for overall personality development of a student.

Professor: Academics who are experts in a field offer courses in that field. Work with applicants who are thinking of pursuing a degree, a testimony or an affirmation or who are enrolled in classes to improve their knowledge or job skills.

Aerospace engineers: They evaluate designs to ensure that the components adhere to engineering requirements. Engineers in the field of aeronautics mostly create planes, satellites, missiles, and rockets.

Design engineers: They conduct research, ask questions, and develop concepts and manufacturing airframe. They also seek to improve the functionality and productivity of already existing products.

Assistant professor: Assisting the lead teacher, who is responsible for the classroom, is the primary responsibility of the ideal assistant instructor.

System Safety Management Engineer: This individual is in charge of organising, planning, describing, and verifying. Aviation electrical or possibly avionics system experience is desired.

Indus University has an autonomous vertical - Training & Placement Department (T & P Dept.) - that connects two vital ends: education and the industry. It exemplifies a link between schools and university constituent associations (entry-level input) and the sector (output-end at the finishing level).

The Training and Placement Department was established in 2006. It was previously affiliated with the Indus Institute of Technology & Engineering until becoming a part of the Indus University in 2012.

The Training and Placement Department is the hub for career assistance for students from all programmes and streams at the university. It provides students with overall career solutions by encouraging them to choose and pursue their ideal vocations.
