Aeronautical Engineering is one of the most challenging fields of engineering with a wide scope for growth. This field deals with the development of new technology in the
field of aviation, space exploration and defence systems. It specialises in the designing, construction, development, testing, operation and maintenance of both commercial and military aircraft, spacecrafts and their components as well as satellites and missiles.
Postgraduate courses and research provide further extension and specialization in the area of aerodynamics,
flight mechanics and control, aerospace structures and propulsion. There is a tremendous potential as air transportation has been growing rapidly and demanding more engineers for maintenance and management of commercial and military aircraft of varied capacities and spacecraft.
