The B.Tech programme in Aerospace Engineering at IISc trains students in core aerospace disciplines — aerodynamics, propulsion, structures, flight mechanics, and guidance & control — while building rigorous foundations in mathematics, physical sciences, and engineering mechanics. The programme emphasises analysis, design, and experimentation, equipping students for careers in research, industry, and deep-tech entrepreneurship in aerospace and related fields.

Programme Highlights

• Aerospace Core: Comprehensive coverage of aerodynamics, propulsion, structures & materials, flight & space mechanics, and guidance & control systems.
• Scientific Foundations: Rigorous training in mathematics, statistics, physics, chemistry, and engineering mechanics underpins all aerospace topics.
• Hands-On Learning: Dedicated laboratories, the Aerospace Engineering X Lab, and the Design–Build–Fly capstone project develop practical, system-level thinking.
• Flexible Electives: Students can tailor their trajectory with electives across IISc, enabling interdisciplinary exposure in AI, robotics, or materials.
• Graduate-Level Access: Exceptional students may take advanced courses in fundamental science, engineering, and AI/ML alongside postgraduate students.
• Research Engagement: Structured project work from Year 3 fosters independent inquiry and industry-relevant research experience.
