Ever since planes started flying in the skies, aviation has been a glamorous vocation sought after by many, but achieved by only a few selected persons. Aeronautical engineering is a branch of engineering which deals with the design and development of vehicles in the air such as aircraft, helicopters, rockets, missiles etc and operations of those vehicles. In addition to air vehicles, Aeronautical engineering makes valuable contributions into the other industrial fields in the form of research, development and design of ground vehicles. Thus, aeronautical engineers have various opportunities to find a job in Defence,aircraft industries and automotive industry.
Graduates of aeronautical engineering work in all areas of the aircraft and airline industries. They also work in other exciting areas such as motor vehicle production and energy industry. In India, large transport and aviation companies employ aeronautical engineers, as do the smaller companies who produce components and services. Air Forces across the globe also employ aeronautical engineers.
