Indian Institute Of Space Science & Technology

The admissions in IIST are based on the ranks secured in JEE Advanced. So JEE Main scores are not enough. So you can get admission here if performing well in JEE Advanced. The eligibility criteria of IIST for B.Tech Aerospace Engineering is given below:
Eligibility : Keeping in mind the pandemic situation prevailing in the country, IIST UG Admission 2021 has relaxed the admission criterion. In line with the decision taken by the Central Seat Allocation Board and the IITs, candidates are now required to only qualify in 10+2 or equivalent examinations. This modification is done for the year 2021 only.
Admission criteria : Candidates should have appeared for the Joint Entrance Examination (Main)-2021 conducted by National Testing Agency (NTA), to qualify themselves to appear for the Joint Entrance
Examination (Advanced)- 2021 conducted by IITs and secure the minimum prescribed marks as given below:
For general candidates : At least 16% marks in aggregate and at least 4% marks in each of the three subjects (Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics)
Further admission in IIST not done through the JOSSA, you have to register through admission.list.ac.in for getting admission here.

Aerospace engineering focuses in designing, construction, development, testing and maintenance of commercial and military air crafts and spacecrafts. One who specializes in Aerospace engineering and possess the bachelors degree in Aerospace Engineering is titled as an Aerospace Engineer.
Graduate of Aerospace engineering are equipped to undertake challenging work in Aerospace Industry. On crucial aspects like propulsion system, aerodynamic design, structural system, precision manufacturing etc. Most of them would join the ISRO and contribute to national space program. They could also take up jobs outside ISRO like HAL, DRDO and ancillaries industries related to the aerospace sector. Having undergone most courses a mechanical engineering graduate would, they can also take up jobs in automotive sector, power sector, manufacturing and R&D etc.
Career options : An Aerospace Engineer can work in both government & private sectors. There are many job opportunities for aerospace engineers in India as well as abroad. Basically an Aerospace Engineer design, develops, researches, test and maintains the performance of military & civil aircraft, rockets, missiles, weapons systems, satellites, etc.
Major Job opportunities for Aerospace Engineers are available in Air Force, Airlines, Corporate Research Companies, Helicopter Companies, Defence Ministry, Aviation Companies, NASA, Flying clubs, Aeronautical Laboratories, Aircraft manufacturers, government owned air services and many others.
Job opportunity in the field of teaching is also open for candidates possessing masters degree in aerospace engineering.
Scope : It has a unique scope for Aerospace Engineering opportunities in India and abroad. With a budget of more than 1.5 billion dollars and record of launching the most satellites in a single mission, India's leading space agency, the ISRO ranks at no. 5 worldwide. It is not the end, many satellites, rockets, missiles, etc. will also be launched in the future which can enhance the rank of the ISRO at the international level. India is one of the countries having brilliant and hardworking youth which can take the aviation sector to the next level. The students are interested in the segment of the research and technology can join this. The Aerospace Engineering in India scope will be touching the new heights.
