Understand the basic difference. Mechatronics Engineering is about creating smart machines and robotics. It blends the knowledge of mechanical, electronics, and automation engineering.

But the Mechanical Engineering is about making traditional machines, thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, and structural design.

Yes, In fact, many aerospace companies in India and abroad prefer hiring Mechanical Engineers. Because their skills are broader and more versatile. Aerospace is essentially a specialised branch of Mechanical Engineering. To transition, you can pursue a Master's (M.Tech/MS) in Aerospace or simply gain proficiency in tools like ANSYS, CATIA, and CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) to secure core roles in design and testing.
