During childhood everyone would have ran out of your house to glance up the sky to see an airplane or helicopter as soon as you hear its sound. You must have thought how this thing is flying as a bird or who made this thing. You might have thought of making an airplane and might have made with a paper. You might have bought a flying plane that is operated by a remote controller. You would have opened the toy just to know how it works. Well, If you still desire to make an airplane and If you wish to open a real airplane to know its mechanism aeronautical engineering is the right course for you.
Aeronautical engineering is the study of how plane (all kinds) fly within the earths atmosphere and to apply all that knowledge to design, build parts and to assemble them into aircrafts and also missiles. Mainly aeronautical engineering teaches about aerodynamics (effect of air on solid bodies), avionics (design of aircrafts), propulsion (force required for flying a body), material science (selecting light material that can withstand large amount of force), structural analysis (for stability) and manufacturing (techniques).
Development and manufacturing of a modern or a new flight is a too complex and expensive process. For that you should have knowledge in this field, must be skillful, creative and should know about latest flight technologies. Main areas of focus are testing, maintenance of aircrafts and missiles, fuel and system analysis, dangers of aircrafts, its effect on environment etc. You should be good in maths and you have to study electronics, software design, risk analysis etc.
I will mention the subjects (not all) that you have to study during the course- Material Science and Engineering, Thermodynamics, Manufacturing Processes, Advanced engineering mathematics, Instrumentation and Control Engineering. Fluid Mechanics, Theory of Machines, Aircraft Materials, Machine Design, Vibration Engineering, Heat Transfer, Aircraft System, Aircraft Structure, Propulsion, Reliability and Maintenance Engineering, Fatigue and Fracture, Total Quality Management, Aerodynamics, Aircraft Design, Maintenance of Power Plant System, Helicopter Theory, Aircraft Communication and Navigation, Civil Aviation and Regulation, etc. I have written previously on scope of aeronautical engineering.
