Aerospace engineering covers the study of aeronautic and spacecraft engineering. It is a specialized field applying the knowledge gained from study of aeronautics and astronautics. Aerospace engineers design, analyse, model, simulate, and test aircraft, spacecraft, satellites, missiles, and rockets. Aerospace technology extends to many other applications of objects moving with in gases or liquids.

 

Examples are golf balls, high speed trains, hydrofoil ships or tall buildings in the wind. Aerospace engineers are typically specialists in fields such as aerodynamics, propulsion, navigation, flight testing, and more.

 

Aerospace engineers develop new technologies for use in aviation, defense systems, and space exploration, often specializing in areas such as structural design, guidance, navigation and control, instrumentation and communication, or production methods.

 

They often use computer-aided design (CAD) software, robotics, and lasers and advanced electronic optics. They also may specialize in a particular type of aerospace products such as commercial transports, military fighter jets, helicopters, spacecraft, or missiles and rockets. They may be experts in aerodynamics, thermodynamics, celestial mechanics, propulsion, acoustics, or guidance and control systems.

 

Aerospace engineers usually gain employment in the aerospace product and parts industry, though the skills of such engineers are now being valued in different fields. An example of this is in the manufacture of motor vehicles.

 

Aerospace engineers are responsible for designing vehicles which have a low resistance to air and greater efficiency with regard to fuel consumption. Other than IITs, Indian Institute of Space Science and Technology offers courses such as B.Tech Space Technology (Avionics), B.Tech Space Technology (Aerospace Engineering). Amrita University, Coimbatore also offers B.Tech Aerospace Engineering.
