As far as marks are considered I think scoring above 50% of the maximum marks will guarantee a rank close to 2000 which is sufficient for getting Aerospace at IITK, IIT-KGP, IITM but maybe not IIT-B. However, don't limit your efforts to attain the required rank only. Work hard and give your best and try to rank as high as you can.
Also, I would suggest you to go for IIT Kanpur if you are interested in Aerospace as it has better facilities in this branch. But it is a well-known fact that the job prospects in Aerospace are very limited in India.
If you get a rank of more than 10000, go for IIST, Trivandrum.
One of my friends studies at Hindustan University. So, I know a little bit about the institute.
Hindustan University is recognized as a great platform for Aerospace Engineering. But the institute owes its reputation to the students who go out of their way to excel in academics without much help from the institute.
According to my friend’s experience, the institute does not offer support of any kind, be it lab equipment, leniency in attendance, or time.
Overall, at Hindustan University you won’t have many facilities, placement offers, or any kind of support. So, it would be better to opt for other options.
One of my elder brothers has completed his B.E degree in Aerospace from BESU, Shibpur.
As per him, Aerospace Engineering is the youngest Department and lacks of proper infrastructure. He also mentioned the poor planning, and except for some professors, other teachers do not have even the knowledge about what they are teaching. However, professors with proper subject knowledge are just awesome; rather, they are the coolest professors in this institute.
Additionally, the positive thing about this institute is that all the professors have a logical mindset. They are always prepared to do any sort of experimentation related to the course. They are always ready to implement any practicable criticism that may approach their way to research.
Moreover, the term “worthwhile” is much related to campus recruitment. Considering this, my elder brother honestly told me that if a student wants to engage with Aerospace Engineering, it is better than going for a higher study. This is so because the institute does not provide any job opportunity after completing M.Tech.
Aerospace Engineering is a new stream in India and if you wants to establish in this field, then it is better to try foreign universities. It is because India still not have a good infrastructure for the development of its own aerospace industry. Besides, the private organisations that offer a job in India are comparatively very low than Russia, Germany and France. The only sole organisation is Hindustan Aeronautics, and it does not have any competitors.
Thus, the student must choose to study Aerospace Engineering very wisely, and they must analyse future job perspectives first.
One of my friends studied aerospace engineering at Amity University, so let me share his experiences about the college and also the true facts about Amity University.
Amity University offers two programs in Aerospace - BTech in Aerospace Engineering and a Dual degree program ( Integrated BTech + MTech).
Categories |
Aerospace Engineering at Amity |
Course Fee |
9.20 lakh |
Placement Percentage |
30-40% |
Highest CTC |
10-13 LPA |
Average CTC |
4-5 LPA |
Recruiting Companies |
Rockwell, Wipro, Indigo, Spice JET, Tech Mahindra, etc. |
The campus placement is not good in the aerospace department. Either you will be selected in Defence or any IT company. There are no internship opportunities available. You will hardly get a package ranging from INR 4-5 LPA. The course fee is also high in respect to the placement given. The course curriculum is mainly theoretical and very less practical.
You should try for another better college for doing Aerospace rather than in Amity.
If you're considering attending an IIT for your academic pursuits, you may want to take a closer look at IITB. Not only do we offer top-tier facilities, but we also have a number of unique projects and programs that set us apart from other IITs.
One such program is Mood Indigo, which is Asia's largest cult fest and the world's second-largest. In addition to Mood Indigo, we also have the Pratham student satellite program and other exciting projects like AUV and Mini Aerial Vehicle. Plus, we have our own Aeromodelling club, which offers unique opportunities for students to get hands-on experience with aircraft design and engineering.
When it comes to job placement, IITB has a strong track record of success. Our graduates are highly sought after by top companies across various industries, which can help set you up for long-term career success.
Of course, choosing an IIT is a personal decision that should be based on a range of factors, including academic programs, location, and student life. While we believe that IITB is the best IIT in India, it's crucial for you to do your own research and determine which program is the best fit for your academic and personal goals.
Ultimately, you can succeed in any IIT program with hard work and dedication. We encourage you to carefully consider your options and choose the program that best aligns with your unique needs and aspirations.
First of all you need to lose this ideology that ECE has more scope and mechanical or aerospace engineering has less scope. Every field has top notch research going in it and provides dynamic and challenging work opportunities.
I also had the same dilemma and I chose Aerospace engineering at IIT Madras over other departments due to following reasons:-
Anyone who has the option of choosing IIT Madras must without further thinking grab the opportunity.
My friend was a graduate student of Automotive Engineering (Engineering Design) from IIT Madras but ended up with a career in Data Science and Algorithmic Trading. Thus every engineer irrespective of his branch should be proficient in at least one programming language.
Choose your college wisely as it’s responsible for shaping and steering your career.
Yes, indeed. Amrita University offers a degree in Aerospace Engineering, but it has branches spread almost at several places around India. And, the best branch of Amrita University among all is the one at Coimbatore.
In terms of a grand infrastructure and a place that provides such a brilliant standard of quality education to students, Amrita University, Coimbatore is the one you should choose for Aerospace Engineering.
I would recommend you to take some prior experience on the subject of Aerospace Engineering.
One of my cousins is an alumnus at Hindustan University. Not many of his batchmates are working as Aerospace Engineers. Most of them were placed in IT companies through campus placements. The very few who are actually working in a field related to Aerospace Engineering made it there through their own efforts.
The placement report published by the university is as follows:

In the academic year of 2018-19, for the department of aerospace engineering, 22 students registered for placement out of which 15 got placed.
A large number of software companies hire from this university. If your only concern is placement, then this might not be the best college for you because the university does not ensure 100% placement.
