Hello Iftikhar,
To apply for aircraft engineering, you need to crack JEE exam, an entrance test for engineering colleges all over India for all the specialised fields. The colleges that offer aircraft/aeronautical engineering are IIT Bombay, IIT Kharagpur, IIT Madras, IIT Kanpur. To be eligible for taking admission in IIT, you need to clear both JEE Main and JEE Advance exams.
Apart from IITs, other colleges that provide aircraft/aeronautical engineering are:

Hi Candidate,
Highly suitable especially if you are inclined towards design, analysis. There is considerable scope for such professionals in the aerospace industry. DRDO, HAL and many private industries/MNCs recently set up, require such analytically oriented engineers. There are many women in the aerospace industry. Many of them are in top positions also. However, you must graduate from one of the top institutions and not those run of the mill private engineering colleges, for gaining entry into the aerospace industry. It is also a fact that the percentage of aerospace engineers in the aerospace industry is very small. Aerospace industry needs and has engineers from all branches of engineering such as mechanical, electrical, electronics, communications, etc.
