IIT Bombay does not offer an Aircraft Maintenance Engineering (AME) course or program.
The Department of Aerospace Engineering at IIT Bombay is focused on the design, analysis, and research of flight vehicles and offers undergraduate (B.Tech in Aerospace Engineering), postgraduate (M.Tech), and doctoral (Ph.D.) degrees in aerospace engineering.
Though IIT Bombay offers a variety of B.Tech (Bachelor of Technology) courses.
If you are considering IIT Bombay and want to maximize your opportunities for non-core (non-traditional) engineering jobs, such as those in software, consulting, finance, analytics, or product management.
List of the non-core branches:
|
Branch |
Non-Core Job Opportunities |
Notes |
|
Excellent |
For software, data science, and tech roles |
|
|
Very Good |
In embedded systems, IoT, and analytics |
|

For tech and analytics |
|
Mechanical, Chemical, Metallurgical |

Many students enter non-core jobs, but may need coding upskilling |
Students from other branches (like Mechanical, Chemical, Metallurgical) also get non-core jobs, but may need to put in extra effort to develop relevant skills (coding, data structures, etc.).
Since my sister was a student of Civil Engineering branch at IIT Bombay, I have information about the same only.
The above ranks are for General Category only. Reserved categories can expect a call at a rank higher than that mentioned above. The overall admission procedure comprises 75% weightage to GATE score and 25% weightage to written test and interview.
Yes, you can definitely do a part time PhD in IIT Bombay. All you need to do is apply as an external category candidate.
Major highlights of part-time PhD in external category
Applications for part time PhD are accepted twice a year for Autumn and Spring Semester.
The course Operations Research offered at IIT Bombay is an integrated Ph.D. course.
Duration: The course duration is 6 years, while the minimum is 5 years. It depends on how much time you take to complete your PhD. You can even extend it more than 6 years but won’t be receiving any stipend for the same. Another option is to opt out of an MSc degree after 3 years.
Compensation: Students are paid around INR 6000/- month for 2 years and then INR 25000 from third year.
Department: This course is offered by the IEOR( Industrial Engineering and Operations Research) department of IIT Bombay which is considered the best in India.
Courses: The courses offered are Industrial Engineering related and some pure operations research related. There are a large number of project courses since this is a research-oriented course. After successfully completing the first 3 years you get admission to a Ph.D. program provided that you qualify certain prerequisites.
Purpose of the course: The course targets students who are interested in research and stimulate them to pursue a career in Operations Research. Some students, however, instead sit for placements after the third year with an MSc degree and don’t go for Ph.D.
Placements: There is no use to mention placement as most of the small batch size opts out of placements to pursue PhD.
Suitability: The course is most suitable for those who are sure of kick-starting a career in research. You get to work on various projects under the guidance of great professors.
Selecting the best PhD advisor is very necessary to ensure a good career. The same professor then gives you a PhD in very less duration or even drags the time unnecessarily. The best part is that you don't need to clear any PhD entrance like UGC CSIR and can easily get a PhD admit with few formalities and end up with a doctorate degree in less than 6 years.
There is a course called CS207 Discrete Structures taught by Professor Ajit Diwan. It was related to Discrete Mathematics - Number Theory, Graph Theory, Combinatorics, Sets, and Groups, and was one of the most difficult courses my friend came across.
Professor Diwan is well known for his highly challenging problems and course material. During his lectures, he delivers a lot of information based on principles. For math lovers, his classes are an absolute delight.
He refrains from conducting more than one exam a month. However, the level of difficulty of the exam is high. The questions look very complicated but when one ponders upon them, they don’t seem that difficult.
The exams were extremely difficult to the extent that the passing cutoff was 7 out of 100 marks. Despite the entire batch consisting of JEE toppers, a lot of them were not able to make it to the cutoff.
