B.Tech. Programmes

1. B.Tech. (Aero Space Engineering): is a 4-year under-graduate degree programme oriented towards the needs of space technology, and has significant overlap with Mechanical Engineering, including Mechanical Design and Manufacturing Sciences, and Space Dynamics. This is similar to programmes of the same title available in many reputed Institutions in India and abroad.

Structure and Design, and Manufacturing Science people with B.Tech. degree in Aerospace Engineering can further specialize in Flight Mechanics, Aerodynamics, Thermal and Propulsion.

Students after completing their degree will be utilizing their skill sets to carry on various tasks at:

1. Vikram Sarabhai Space Centre, Trivandrum

2. ISRO Satellite Centre, Bangalore

3. Space Application Centre, Ahmadabad

4. Sathish Dhawan Space Centre, SHAR

5. Liquid Propulsion Systems Centre, Trivandrum, Bangalore, Mahendragiri.

6. ISRO Satellite Tracking Centre, Bangalore

7. National Aerospace laboratories (NAL)

8. Hindustan Aeronautics Limited (HAL)

9. Various Industries involved in design and development of mechanical systems.

10. Industries involved in development of aerospace systems.

2. B.Tech. (Avionics) : is a 4-year under-graduate degree programme comprising of subjects of study in Electronics and Communications Engineering programmes, in addition to study of Advanced Electronics in Digital Communication, Control Systems and Computer Systems used in Aerospace Systems.

Students with B.Tech. Degree in Avionics can later specialize in areas like DSP, RF & Communication, Antenna, Power Electronics, Micro Electronics, and Control Systems etc.
