Hi Alfiya

Faculty in IIST for Aeronautical Engineering is one of the best in the country. Their teaching quality and standards are comparable to IIT. Course curriculum is well designed and help students understand major areas of work .

Industry exposure in IIST is very good , ISRO funds this college . Companies related to space and science are proving to offer good opportunities to various students . Maximum students are placed in ISRO as scientists but you'll get more option if not ISRO. 

So, you can choose IIST because teachers are really helpful and if you have potential and skills then you'll surely have a bright future ahead. 

All The Best!!

hello aspirant,

Hello,

IIST is an institute dedicated to Aerospace science. To get into IIST is something similar to getting into NITs or IITs. The institute admits students merely based on JEE Score. There is no college level exam for admission. If you have 75% in Class 12 and attended JEE Advanced, a rank list will be prepared based on the score. With the help of which the admission occurs.

JEE is conducted by NTA twice a year- January and April session. You have to first qualify JEE Mains to apply for JEE Advanced. And there should be atleast 20% (72 on 360 marks) overall and 5% (6 on 120 marks for each) in each subjects of JEE Advanced. The syllabus has chemistry, physics, mathematics. Once eligibility norms are satisfied you can apply through the website of IIST for admission.
