QnA related to Aerospace Engineering

Ask your question related to Aerospace Engineering

Dear Candidate ,
You can pursue a B. SC in Aerospace or related fields in a government college without appearing for JEE or CUET by applying to state University or government aided institutions that offer admissions based on Class 12 marks or conduct their own entrance exams .
To apply , check the official websites of such institutions during the admission season( usually June - July ) and ensure you meet their eligibility criteria.

Diploma in EEE is eligible for lateral entry (direct 2nd year) in some colleges.

  • Apply with Diploma Marks or Entrance Rank.

  • Attend Counseling / Admission Rounds.

  • Join in 2nd Year of B.Tech Aerospace.

Finishing a diploma in Electrical and Electronics Engineering, you can opt for a course in Aerospace Engineering.


You can consider lateral entry: Many engineering colleges give students who have a diploma the option to enter the 2nd year straight in a similar B.Tech program. Learn whether the college takes in students for Aerospace Engineering using lateral entry.


If you wish to join Aerospace Engineering but it isn’t offered as a lateral entry, try joining either Mechanical or Electrical Engineering and move to Aerospace Engineering later.


You can be required to attend an entrance exam such as the state’s lateral entry test or a counseling session based on the marks you receive in your diploma.


You might look into private universities: They often let diploma holders be more flexible about starting in courses connected to aerospace.


If you cannot start with aerospace engineering lateral entry, you can apply after your bachelor’s degree in a related field.

Dear Candidate,
With an AEEE 2025 rank of 7954 and being a home state candidate , your chances of securing a seat in Aerospace Engineering at Amrita Vishwa Vidyapeeth are limited .

Hello Aspirant,

With AEEE 2025 rank of 7954 and being a home state student, your chances of getting Aerospace Engineering at Amrita (Coimbatore campus) under Slab 1 are extremely low. Previous years show that Aerospace Engineering at Coimbatore usually closed at a rank of 5000-6000 for Slab 1, particularly for home state candidates. However, you might have a chance in Slab 2 or Slab 3, depending on how the cut off moves this year.

I would suggest that you participate in all rounds of counselling and even watch for any vacancy-based spot admissions.

With a rank of 40,325 in AEEE and 65 percentile in JEE Mains, getting a seat in Aerospace Engineering might be tough but not impossible. Aerospace is a popular and competitive branch, so top colleges usually need better ranks or percentiles. You can try for private or lesser-known colleges where the cutoff is lower. Also, consider related branches like Mechanical or Aeronautical Engineering as alternatives. Keep checking counseling updates and participate actively to increase your chances.



Hey there! I totally get your frustration about not snagging a spot in aerospace engineering with a 36,007 rank at SRM. Cutoffs can be super competitive, especially for popular branches like aerospace. While I don’t have the exact cutoff for this year, it’s usually around the top ranks, so it might be worth checking SRM’s official site or forums for the latest updates. Keep your chin up—there are plenty of other awesome options out there!

FOR MORE DETAIL CALL@9962747850

The expected closing rank for Aerospace Engineering at SRM University in 2025 is between 48,000 and 52,500 . With your rank of 36,007, it is unlikely to secure admission in this branch. You may consider exploring other engineering disciplines with higher closing ranks or look into different campuses of SRM University.

With a rank of 36,007 in SRMJEEE 2025, securing Aerospace Engineering at SRM Kattankulathur is unlikely (closing rank around 51,500–52,500 ).

  • Try SRM Ramapuram Campus , where you have a stronger chance as the closing rank for Aerospace Engineering is up to 70,000 .

  • Stay updated on counseling details.
