Students who have not chosen Math’s as a subject in their Class 12 will have to complete a bridge course in Math’s at the university.orPassed Diploma in Engineering and Technology with at least 45 percent aggregate (40 percent aggregate for reserved category candidates).

The institution has been offering good placements. Refer to the table for more clarity on IIAEIT placements: 

BTech course is three specialisations is offered at IIAEIT. Standard engineering formats are used in the academic structure, with specific disciplines added in subsequent semesters. Students may need to exercise more initiative in the areas of placement possibilities and practical experience. While making a decision, it is critical to consider the course options, costs, and long-term job fit.

IIAEIT provides a four-year, full-time BTech programme in aerospace, aeronautical, or avionics engineering at the undergraduate level in association with Ajeenkya DY Patil University and Aeronautical Engineering and Research Organization (AERO) at ADYPU campus in Pune. 

The AERO-CET/ JEE Main/ MAHCET scores are used to determine admission to IIAEIT. At IIAEIT, the minimum cut-off for a B.Tech degree is between 70%-75% in 2023. 

The B.Tech programme is the hallmark course of IIEST Shibpur. The B.Tech programme at IIEST Shibpur has a tuition cost of INR 62,500 per semester for applicants in the General/OBC/EWS category whose family income is more than INR 5 Lacs and INR 20,833 per semester for the students in the SC/ST category whose family income is between INR 1 and 5 lakhs. 

On the other hand, the IIAEIT in Pune has a set of fees that include those for registration,   admission, tuition, books, lab/library use, uniforms, and more. For the full four-year program, the cost of Aeronautical engineering in IIAEIT Pune would range from Rs 4 Lacs to Rs 8 lakh. 

Therefore, the fee structure of both universities is almost in the same range thus it depends on students which institute they want to join based on their preferences.
