Aerospace Engineering

What the Data says in Aerospace / Related Branches at CU.

Placement Rate & Recruiters

Chandigarh University boasted of 50 plus companies in Mechanical, Automobile and Aerospace Engineering in the placement drive of batches 202425.


It also reports that more than 94 percent of students in these branches (Mech/Auto/Aero) got jobs during campus placements.


Top and average salary (CTC) Numbers.

Most recent placement drives had a top domestic engineering package university-wide of about RS 54.75 LPA. 


But in the case of Mechanical, Automobile and Aerospace Engineering in particular the maximum package that has been reported in one of the more recent drives was 11.5 LPA.
The Wire

In earlier data or student reviews, specifically in the aerospace case, we can find references to aerospace having the highest price of - -14-15 LPA, average of -6-7 LPA (or less in certain reviews) based on batch and eligibility.

Student Feedback & Realities

It has been reviewed that in one aerospace batch, 10-15 students were placed in a batch of 60 (which appears to be low, but could be due to eligibility, performance or company demands).

There are internships that can be done and some of them are related to organisations. But new aerospace graduate roles are sometimes all more on the maintenance, design support end testing than directly high-end R&D or space industry positions (dependent on performance and opportunity).

The Aerospace Engineering programme layout has designs to ensure career growth. The career planning process is pursued with proper resume preparation and skill up-gradation support and mock interviews set up under the guidance of mentors. They are also made to understand how a higher platform could be of great use as the faculty has been advising them for higher education plans. 

The curriculum engages students in modern subjects like satellite design, drone technology, and advanced flight systems. Through various industry alliances, interns get real opportunities to tackle real problems too. A few among them would try their hands at realizing their dream ideas supported by the innovative hub. Career opportunities are numerous-too wide; in aviation, defense, private aerospace companies, or research centers. All in all, faculty design will make students truly ready for the competitive job arena. This course is good for those wanting a study-skill-career preparedness blend.

Aerospace engineering at Chandigarh University offers subjects in aerodynamics, propulsion, aircraft design among others. Students are taught in well-equipped labs like flight simulator, aeromodelling lab, propulsion lab while there is also provision made in observatory study of the sky. The programme offers the scope to choose specializations like avionics, aircraft maintenance and even rockets.

The university has linkages to courses offered by ISRO whereby training certificates are to be given under ISRO expertise. With AI as a minor subject, learners get extra edge on this new technology. Teachers from IITs, NITs and industry share their experience. Students also go for industrial visits, seminars and projects. Many companies in aviation and defense come for placements. The scope is vast in airlines, defense, research, and aerospace companies. It's a good pick for those who want to pursue a career in aviation and space.
