The diploma in Aeronautical Engineering is usually a 3-year course. That is spread over 6 semesters. This set period equips the students with both theoretical knowledge required and practical skills needed in the aeronautical field, which ranges from aircraft design to manufacturing, maintenance, and repair.
The student takes the basic engineering skills in the first year, which may include mathematics, physics, and mechanical engineering principles. In the subsequent years, the students extend this to more specialized topics, such as aerospace materials, flight mechanics, aircraft systems, propulsion, and aviation safety.
The final year usually includes practical training or industry internships, where students gain hands-on experience working with aircraft maintenance or aerospace manufacturing companies. Some institutions may offer additional options, such as part-time or distance learning programs, which could extend the course duration beyond 3 years, depending on the study mode and course flexibility.
A whole 3-year duration prepares for entry-level placements in the related field of aeronautical engineering or further related studies.
