The full-time 4 year BTech in Aerospace Engineering degree program at Jain University has a Grade ‘A’ NAAC accreditation and has been ranked at 117 by NIRF in 2020. The course is conducted under the scope of IIAEM.

Course Structure: The curriculum is well-designed and spread across 8 semesters offering a good balance of theory and practical subjects. The last two semesters also require students to submit a practical project.

Faculty: Most of the faculties are alumni members from IIT’S, NAL, ISRO, and ADA. The faculty are also known to help students with internships, and placements through their industry contacts.

Infrastructure: For the aerospace department, the university offers multiple practical laboratories, experimental facilities- like the subsonic wind tunnel facility and research collaborations.

Admissions:

• To be eligible for admissions students are required to qualify and clear the Jain Entrance Test (JET) conducted by the institution.

• The selection process is based on the ranking. Apart from that, students must also have a minimum score of 60% in 10+2.

Placements: Aerospace engineering is still a developing field in India because of which there are very few companies that hire students directly from campuses. Students who complete the course are usually offered jobs in Tech and IT companies like TCS and Infosys. The average CTC received by the students is 7 LPA.

Hence, for students who are passionate about studying aerospace engineering and are looking for a decent university to enhance their skills, Jain University is a good option.

One should judge not only the merits of the branch chosen in the university but the university as a whole to make a sound conclusion.

• The number of seats for B.tech in Alliance University is 420.

• For the year 2020, the highest salary package was Rs. 10 LPA, and the average salary package was Rs. 4.19 LPA was offered to Bachelors of Technology (B.Tech) in Aerospace Engineering.
• More than 380 recruiters participate during placement season with many big companies like Amazon, Byju’s, EY, etc.

• Out of the total students in the 2020 batch of B.tech in Aerospace Engineering, 76 students got placed.
• The infrastructure of Alliance University is state of the art, with well-equipped health centers, hostels, food court, sports facilities, and transport.
• The faculty are expert in their domain of knowledge and distinguished personalities in their fields with their education from India’s reputable institutions.
• The university provides the ideal environment for fostering research through mentoring and well-equipped labs, library, and digital resources.

Overall, the university offers adequate resources and facilities to gain practical knowledge in your chosen branch, the success rate of placement will depend more on the merit of the student.

Seeing your interest in both branches, IIEST has a wide scope of diverse cultures and you will find many students from all over the nation. 

IIEST Shibpur offers great exposure in terms of academics as well as extra-curricular activities along with the interactive clubs and fun happening fests. It comes under the Government of India and is one of the NIT. 

However, Aerospace Engineering is not a trending branch anymore and it was in the limelight a decade ago. To open up more opportunities, you will be required to pursue a Master’s or prepare for the competitive exams to get a decent job. 

ECE at Heritage Institute is more prominent but being a private college, it is not up to the mark as compared to Aerospace Engineering. The placement opportunities at HIT are not good. Therefore, all you can do is to opt for IIEST, get a decent aggregate, and change the branch from Aerospace to ECE in the second year.

The Department of Aerospace was started in Karunya University with the primary objective to produce aerospace engineers for meeting the ever-growing demand for engineers for serving the sectors that are civil aeronautical and defense-oriented. At the same time, the department also aims to employ part of its staff in the expansion of space R&D as the demand for space applications in communication, strategic applications, remote sensing, etc is increasing.

The technologists and entrepreneurs of Karunya University are in much demand by the aircraft design and manufacture as there is still a lack of a viable civilian aircraft and industry sector in the country. A large part of the business still goes out to foreign launch operations despite the presence of large communication satellites that are launched into synchronous orbits.

The experimental facilities at Karunya University have been set up not only to teach but also to evolve as tools of research and consultancy. The specifications of the facilities have been laid out with their eventual research application. You will have to perform testing and generation of data for real-life applications in aircraft, spacecraft, and rockets as opposed to cases that are idealized in the UG curriculum.
