What is Aerospace Engineering?
Aerospace Engineering is the branch of engineering behind the design, construction and science of aircraft and spacecrafts. Aerospace engineering is largely about artefacts that fly including airplanes, rockets, satellites or helicopters. It is also about fluid flow, control systems and strength of materials and improving strength. It also deals with how to design things so that they can be reliably built and maintained.
Aerospace engineering deals with design, development and test aircraft, spacecraft or missiles and supervise their manufacturers. Aerospace Engineering deals with the development of new technologies for use in aviation, defence systems and space exploration and sometimes specialise in areas like structures, vehicle movement and control propulsion systems, communications and overall vehicle design.
Few Lines about B.Tech/BE Aerospace Engineering
The B.Tech/BE Aerospace Engineering is an undergraduate course that is divided into 8-semesters. The course elaborates about the basic components of an aircraft such as its design and the science behind it. The course deals with the aircraft within the atmosphere of earth and also with those that operate outside the earth’s atmosphere. It is an applied discipline of engineering dealing with making, designing, manufacturing, functioning and maintenance of vehicles as aircraft, spacecraft and missiles.
The course deals with the study and practice of areas of specialisation like aerodynamics, thermodynamics, control systems, propulsion celestial mechanics and electronics.
Eligibility for B.Tech/BE Aerospace Engineering
The students who have passed PUC or 10+2 with a science background can join B.Tech/BE courses. The students interested in joining B.Tech/BE courses are required to qualify competitive exams like CET/COMED-K/JEE with high marks in order to get merit seats in various colleges.
Admission Procedures
The students with relevant qualifications can join B.Tech/BE courses by two modes. The first one is Merit based admission and the second one is Direct admission.
Let’s discuss in detail
Merit Admission
The students who are interested to join B.Tech/BE degree should mandatorily appear for CET/COMED-K/JEE or institutional-based entrance exams and undergo counselling to choose their desired colleges for merit seats. The engineering college allotts the merit seats to the students according to their rankings and marks obtained by them in their entrance exams and marks scored in PUC or 10+2.
