Aeronautical Engineering

Introduction
Aeronautical Engineering is one of the most popular fields for the students who wish to make their
career in aircraft, airplanes, jet planes and space shuttles.
Aeronautical engineering is the deep study of Aeronautics. Aeronautics term has come from the
ancient Greek word Aer which means Air and Nautike which means navigation of the air.
Aeronautics is the art or science of the manufacturing, design, and study of air flight capable
machines.
Aeronautical engineering involves the study, design and research of the machines or airplanes
which moves in the space and air sphere of the earth.
The field, Aeronautical engineering is the best career oriented field. It is one of the challenging fields
of engineering. The aeronautical engineering deals with the technology and development in aviation,
defense and exploration system.

Introduction
Electronics and Communication Engineering is one of the fastest growing field of engineering
study. It involves the transmission of information across the channel.
Electronics and Communication Engineering (ECE) compiles in Communication Engineering and
core Electronics Engineering. The course concept is to focus mainly on the communication part with
the knowledge of the electronics field.
One question always rises in the mind!
What is the difference between electrical engineering and electronics engineering fields?
The basic study of ECE is just as the electronics engineering, and communication engineering is an
additional field in electronics engineering.
Electronics and Communication Engineering deals with the electronic devices and software
applications. It is an interface of chip level hardware and information technology
The history of electronics engineering is too ancient but it comes in race with the invention of Radio
and Telegraph. At that time the Electronics and Communication Engineering was known as the Radio

communication such as design, digital electronics, fundamental of Electronics engineering, signal &
circuit, electronic circuits, VLSI, power electronics, computer architecture, and control systems.
After completion of UG degree the students are designated as the Bachelor of Engineering or
Bachelor of Technology, depending on the University.
A bachelor degree usually covers the mathematics, physics, and computer science.
You can choose the Electronics and Communication Engineering, once you have completed your 10 or
10+2 examination with mathematics and science.
The academic criterion of Electronics and Communication Engineering is divided into three
courses/programmes as follows:
1. Diploma courses leading to the polytechnic diploma of 3 years duration. (after 10th or 12th)
