studied at Chandigarh University (2018)

It all depends on your personal preferences and what appeals to you the most. However, if none of these two branches piques your attention, then definitely mechanical engineering in PEC is the way to go. 

  • Mechanical is often favored over Aerospace in terms of placement, faculty, or any other criterion.
  • Mechanical is an evergreen branch, as they claim, and they call it that for a reason. 
  • It is in high demand. All industries will need the mind of a mechanical engineer today and forever.

How are the facilities of the aerospace engineering department in Karunya University?

TC
Tanush Chandra Posted On : September 9th, 2021
B.Tech Computer Science and Engineering from Karunya University (2020)

The Department of Aerospace was started in Karunya University with the primary objective to produce aerospace engineers for meeting the ever-growing demand for engineers for serving the sectors that are civil aeronautical and defense-oriented. At the same time, the department also aims to employ part of its staff in the expansion of space R&D as the demand for space applications in communication, strategic applications, remote sensing, etc is increasing.

The technologists and entrepreneurs of Karunya University are in much demand by the aircraft design and manufacture as there is still a lack of a viable civilian aircraft and industry sector in the country. A large part of the business still goes out to foreign launch operations despite the presence of large communication satellites that are launched into synchronous orbits.

The experimental facilities at Karunya University have been set up not only to teach but also to evolve as tools of research and consultancy. The specifications of the facilities have been laid out with their eventual research application. You will have to perform testing and generation of data for real-life applications in aircraft, spacecraft, and rockets as opposed to cases that are idealized in the UG curriculum.

Which will be a better choice, 5 year MTech in IIT Bhubaneswar or 4 year chemical in IIT Hyderabad or aerospace in IIST?

NR
Nikhil Raj Posted On : August 14th, 2020

M.Tech from IIT Bhubaneswar makes sense only if you are willing to study more on research-based topics of the subject. It is best if one is looking for a career in Teaching, Researching, etc. to further gain knowledge about the subject and not work in MNCs.

IIT Hyderabad ranks 8th in the Engineering category by NIRF 2020. The number of students who got placed from the Chemical Engineering department in the 2019 placements was 26. The average salary package offered to students with Chemical Engineering is 15 lakhs per annum.

IIST is a space institute under the Department of Space. The students from IIST are recruited as scientists and engineers in the Department of Space facilities and Indian Space Research Organization centers all over India. They receive a starting salary of 10 lakhs per annum. Facilities like Infrastructure, Library, sports facilities, Computer labs, clinics, Data centers in IIST are much better and well equipped than the IITs.

Thus it is your choice to opt for what course you are interested in.

Is Malla Reddy Engineering College good for a B.Tech in aeronautical engineering?

DB
Debarati Banerjee Posted On : January 20th, 2021
Mechanical Engineering department, National Institute of Technology, 2019

No, it is not a suitable option for B.tech in aeronautical engineering. A friend of mine has studied there and notified me about its drawbacks. He strongly suggested me not to take admissions to that college

  • There is no separate branch for aeronautical engineering. You won't be able to get the required education and the appropriate syllabus if your aim is higher studies in this field.
  • The quality of education at Malla Reddy Engineering College is not satisfactory. The faculty isn’t helpful nor is the reputation to draw renowned companies for placements. Even the most brilliant students struggle to get a good salary from the companies that recruited them.
  • The degree from this college won't be of much help to you while aiming for high-profile jobs with a strong salary package.

If one is keen on pursuing B.tech in aeronautical engineering then it would be advisable to look at any of the IITs, NITs, or the other top 20 colleges. 

  • In the year 2020, no aeronautical based companies visited the campus for recruitment which led to a zero placement rate.
  • The few students who were selected during placements were taken in by the non-core companies.
  • The students were thus left with zero option but to indulge themselves in other streams of engineering. 
  • Regardless of this, their starting salary was 2.5 LPA. The salary was not at all satisfactory.

Let's take a look at the factual table to get a better understanding of the situation –

Placement rate for Aeronautical Engineering branch (2020)

0%

Placement rate for other engineering branches (non-core) (2020)

65%-70%

Average package salary (2020)

>2LPA and <6LPA

Quality of teachers appointed

Average (Some of them are good, some are not)

Curriculum

Needs improvement; Modifications required in terms of the current requirement of this field.

Therefore, keeping the above discussions in mind Malla Reddy College is not favorable for pursuing B.tech in aeronautical engineering. One should concentrate on getting admitted to either IITs or NITs, even if one has to wait and prepare for a year or more.

Which is better, aerospace at IIT Madras or ECE at IIT Bhubaneswar?

A
Admin Posted On : June 26th, 2024

Whether aerospace at IIT Madras is better or ECE at IIT Bhubaneswar is better this choice solely depends on your career goals, subject choices, and preference.

  • However, if you ask me I think opting for ECE at IIT Bhubaneswar is a good choice as the ECE branch at the institution is known for its extensive academic structure, highly qualified faculty members, and excellent facilities for research works.
  • IIT Bhubaneswar offers undergraduate and Postgraduate programs for ECE.
  • The average course fee for the first year of BTech in ECE from IIT Bhubaneswar is around INR 2.32 Lakhs.
  • The placement scenario for the ECE branch at IIT Bhubaneswar is pretty good with 90.91% of students placed in the placement drive.
  • The highest package is INR 44.62 LPA and the average is INR 22.85 LPA for the year 2023.
