Mechanical Engineering

You are eligible for the Commercial pilot course. You can actually start the course after finishing 12th. There was no need to pursue graduation. But since you have, its not going to be any problem.

It is a good investment. Because whatever you will spent in the pilot course, can be make up as a pilot. Commercial pilots have good salary and there are additional perks as well.

Eligibility

1. At least 12th standard should have been passed (in physics and Maths) and No percentage bar.

2. Minimum Age Required is 18.

3. Class II medical Examination has to be done from the list of the DGCA approved Doctors.

4. Theory subject + radiotelephony

a. Air Regulation

b. Aviation Meteorology

c. Air Navigation

d. Technical – General

e. Technical Specific

5. 200 hours of flying Training

Procedure:

Student’s Pilot Licence

Firstly you will obtain the Student’s Pilot Licence. This licence can actually be taken after completing 12th. There is no flying lessons involved to get the licence.

Private Pilot Licence

You will next aim for the Private Pilot Licence. To apply for this licence yo should have completed 12th standard. Now your training will start. An instructor will teach you to fly the plane. Then you will gain 40 hours of flying experience with instructor and 20 hours of solo flying experience. Once you have done that, clear a written test to get the Private Pilot Licence.

Commercial Pilot Licence

In the final stage, you will have to gain flying experience of 200 hours. This will be followed by series of written tests on Air Regulations, Aviation Meteorology etc. In the end you will go through medical test which will be conducted by the group of doctors by Director General Civil Aviation (DGCA)

NOTE: Don't think after Mech engineering if you do pilot course you will get job easily.It doesn't matter for airlines if you are a mech engineer or a 12th pass candidate.They just look how many hours of flying experience you have, not which degree you have.If you really want to pursue your career as a Pilot, I suggest you to not to waste your time.

The cutoff trend for BTech at JSS Science and Technology University has been increasing in the recent years. In 2022, the closing rank for BTech. under general category for all India quota was 41658. In 2023, it increased to 42285. Likewise, the cut off ranks have changed from 41658 to 42285 for OBC 41658 to 42285 for SC 41658 to 42285 for ST 41658 to 42285 for EWS 41658 to 42285 for PWD. This trend is likely to continue in the coming years, as the demand for engineering education in India continues to grow. Similar cut off trend can be seen for female candidates under all categories however the ranks are slightly different.

Mechanical engineering is the study, design, development, construction, and testing of mechanical and thermal sensors and devices, including tools, engines, and machines. Mechanical engineers work mostly in engineering services, research and development, and manufacturing. Coming to your question, without any comparison.

I would say LPU is better for mechanical engineering based on the following point.LPU is good for Mechanical and automobile engineering. Good placements in a core company as well as a software company. Other than participating in different events like a go-kar.

Highlights of the Curriculum:Study Abroad:Summer/Winter School/ International Exposure:These Programmes generally happen in the summer vacations or winter vacations of the academic year. A summer/winter school/ international exposure is as form of educational Programme that offers courses, both academic and non-academic.

Semester Exchange:Gain a competitive superiority on your fellow students by spending a full semester at partner foreign university.Industry certifications, MOOCs, Hackathons / Co-curricular Competitive events, Workshops, Guest lectures, Educational Trips, Live projects, Incubation projects, Community projects, projects with NGOs etc. are an integral part of curriculum.There are highly experienced faculty members with specialisation in various fields like Aerospace Engineering, Automobile Engineering, CAD/CAM, Engineering Design, Industrial Engineering, Machine Tool Engineering, Manufacturing Technology, Metallurgy, Robotics, Thermal Engineering, etc.

Some of the companies that visited LPU for mechanical engineering are Unominda, Altair, Dharam Consulting, Collins India, Hettich India, MVM Industries, Ashok Leyland, Bosch and Siemens Home Appliances, Volkswagon, Punjab Renewable Energy Systems, Wabag, Imperial Society of Innovative Engineers, Steelstrips Wheels, TCI, Raam Group, Nylocore Transmisisons, Saint Gobain Glass India, CHC Consultancy, GE Power, Delhivery etc. The placements are highly commendable.

The highest salary package offered for B.Tech Mechanical is 31 LPA. LPU provides placement classes to all the students from the very first year who opt for the placement. With the help of this, they can prepare themselves for placements till the pre-final year because the companies will start visiting for the recruitment of students from a pre-final year. Some of the students go for internships also in their final year.
