Aeronautical Engineering is the study of manufacturing, maintenance, and research of flight-capable machines. Aeronautical engineering operates in the area of airplanes, missiles, helicopters, spaceships, and even military aircraft. Aeronautical meaning is navigation through the air.

Aeronautical Engineering Courses are in-demand courses in India as India is the home to the world's third-largest civil aviation market, with the potential to overtake the United States.

Renowned institutions like Anna University, IIST Thiruvananthapuram, Dr. Ambedkar Institute of Technology, Madras Institute of Technology, RTMNU, and FGIET Raebareli offer various Aeronautical Engineering Courses such as B.Tech Aeronautical Engineering and BE Aeronautical Engineering. Admission for diploma aeronautical engineering courses is based on merit, but degree programs in aeronautical engineering courses require valid scores in JEE Main, JEE Advanced, and GATE. State Universities accept entrance exam scores conducted by their institution.

Aeronautical Engineering Courses fee in government colleges varies between INR 50,000 - INR 4,00,000. While the course fee in the private colleges varies between INR 70,000 - INR 5,00,000.

After completing a BTech in Aeronautical Engineering Courses, students can work for ISRO, NASA, DRDO, HAL, NAL, MRO, and other such organizations. Another very popular related aeronautical engineering course is B.Tech Aerospace Engineering. In India, the average starting salary for an Aeronautical Engineer ranges between INR 5,00,000 and INR 8,00,000 per year.
