B.E. Aerospace Engineering (AS)

Curriculum
  • The Bachelor of Engineering (BE) program in Aerospace Engineering spans four years and encompasses a comprehensive array of subjects ranging from mathematics and physics to engineering fundamentals and specialized aerospace topics like Aircraft Performance and Aerospace Materials.
  • The second year emphasizes core technical subjects such as Mechanics of Materials, Thermodynamics, and Incompressible Aerodynamics, supported by hands-on experience in practical labs like the aerodynamics Lab and CAAD Lab. It includes foundational courses like Transforms and Statistical Methods and Complex Variables and Numerical Methods, alongside interdisciplinary learning through Social Connect, Biology for Engineers, and Universal Human Values. This phase blends academic excellence with holistic growth through activities like NSS, sports, and yoga.
  • This year focuses on advanced topics like Aviation Management, Compressible Aerodynamics, Aerospace Propulsion, and Aerospace Structural Analysis, coupled with practical skills through electives, projects, and labs. Students also engage in research, interdisciplinary studies, and activities for personal growth and societal impact.
  • Final year emphasizes specialized and advanced topics, including Space Flight Mechanics, Computational Fluid Dynamics, and Aerospace Vehicle Design, while providing flexibility through electives and online courses. Practical experience is a core focus, with the Major Project and a 14–20-week internship preparing students for industry or research careers.
  • Beyond the core curriculum, students can pursue specialized paths, including earning Honors or Minor degrees in specific areas through additional credits, aligning with the educational vision of offering flexible and specialized pathways as envisioned by the National Education Policy (NEP).
  • Elective Courses offer students the flexibility to explore diverse interests such as robotics, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), or satellite systems.
  • Moreover, Specialized Electives, including Online Certification Courses, enable students to delve deeper into niche areas like space propulsion and advanced aerodynamics.
  • Professional Development courses focus on crucial skills like engineering ethics, project management, and communication, while Internship or Co-op Experience provides practical exposure to the aerospace industry.
  • Throughout the program, Laboratory Work facilitates hands-on learning experiences with aerospace systems, experiments, and simulations.
  • The Senior Design Project complements the capstone project, allowing students to further refine their design and problem-solving abilities.
  • Industry Seminars and Guest Lectures enrich the learning experience by offering insights into the latest trends, challenges, and opportunities in the aerospace industry through presentations by industry professionals.
