Admission to B.Tech. Programme 2014
Indian Institute of Space Science and Technology (IIST)
Department of Space, Government of India
Thiruvananthapuram
IIST offers Bachelor of Technology (B.Tech.) programmes in three branches, namely
-
Aerospace Engineering :
The Aerospace Engineering programme in IIST is oriented towards the needs of space technology and has significant overlap with Mechanical Engineering including Mechanical Design, Manufacturing Science and Space Dynamics. B.Tech. Degree in Aerospace Engineering enables the student to specialize in Flight Mechanics, Aerodynamics, Thermal and Propulsion, Structure and Design and Manufacturing Science. -
Avionics :
Avionics covers electronics related to aerospace systems. The Department of Avionics, with a well-knit symbiosis of Electrical, Electronics, Communication Engineering and Computer Science, has the vision of producing Engineers/Scientists/Technologists of the highest calibre in Space Electronics. Students opting for Avionics get to learn what is generally covered in a typical Electronics and Communications programme and in addition, get exposure to advanced electronics in Digital Communication, Control Systems and Computer Systems.
A student with a B.Tech. Degree in Avionics can specialize in areas like Digital Signal Processing (DSP), RF & Microwave Communications, Antenna, Power Electronics, Microelectronics, Control systems, etc. -
Physical Sciences :
B.Tech. in Physical Sciences is oriented towards application of basic sciences to Space Science, Space Technology and Space Application. The programme lays a strong foundation in Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics and gives exposure to important applications of space technology such as Earth System Sciences, Astronomy and Astrophysics, Remote Sensing and Geographical Information System.
A student with a B.Tech. Degree in Physical Sciences can specialize in areas like Atmospheric and Ocean Sciences, Solid Earth Science, Astronomy and Astrophysics, Remote Sensing and Geographical Information System. The curriculum is interdisciplinary, with emphasis given for both science and engineering.
- B.Tech. in Aerospace Engineering : 60
- B.Tech. in Avionics : 60
- B.Tech. in Physical Sciences : 36
