Hello,

The Aerospace Engineering department at VIT Bhopal is relatively young because the campus was established in 2017. The quality of infrastructure in the college is excellent, and so are general education standards, but, compared to Computer Science and Electronics streams, placement support in Aerospace Engineering as a discipline is not as solid as it should be. Very limited numbers of students get core placements in an aerospace-related role; rather, most students move out into other fields or into a masters' program.

Faculty quality at VIT Bhopal for Aerospace Engineering has mixed reviews. Return on investment for this specific program might not be that great when compared to other colleges with a strong aerospace program, such as IITs or NITs. If you want more exposure and job opportunities in industry with Aerospace Engineering, then maybe you should look into some of the other institutes which have a more established reputation in the field.

In case you are planning on joining VIT Bhopal, then weigh out its packages relative to what other options might hold for you, particularly to a specific program such as Aerospace Engineering.
