What is Aeronautical Engineering?
Aeronautical Engineering is the science involved with the study, design and manufacture of flight-capable machines or the techniques of operating an aircraft. The course trains the student to design, construct, analyse and test commercial or military aircrafts. The aeronautical engineering students are responsible to devise new designs that are cost effective and energy efficient.
Few Lines about B.Tech/BE Aeronautical Engineering
The B.Tech/BE Aeronautical Engineering course is an undergraduate course that is divided into 8-semesters. The course is designed in such a way to enhance students with problem-solving ability in the aeronautical science field and provide major insights into design, operations and controls involved in aviation technology. The course also deals with the working maintenance designing and development of aircrafts such as aeroplanes, rockets and even drones.
The course involves certain aspects of engineering and its wider application in the field of aeronautics. The course mainly trains the students in the field of aircraft designing, its working conditions and its maintenance.
Eligibility for B.Tech/BE Aeronautical 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 the 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.
There are two types of counselling for the B.Tech/BE students
1. Karnataka Examination Authority (KEA) Counselling
The students who are interested to join the government engineering colleges and other engineering colleges affiliated to the government should undergo the counselling procedures of Karnataka Examination Authority (KEA).
