The department has the following state-of-the-art laboratories, Aerodynamics Lab, Energy Conversion Lab, Foundry&Forging Lab, Machine Shop, Material Testing Lab, Metrology Lab, Propulsion Lab, Structures Lab etc.
MiG 27 Fighter Jet
The Aeronautical Engineering department provides hands-on experience with MiG-27 variable sweep ground attack aircraft. The aircraft was built by the Soviet Union and later license produced in India by Hindustan Aeronautics Limited. The students understand the complete airframe structure in the campus and study design requirements, provisions to mount subsystems as well as control systems.Hands on Experience in Flight Simulator
The Aeronautical Engineering department provides hands on experience with Flight simulators on the campus. This helps students artificially re-create aircraft flight and the environment in which it flies for pilot training, design or other purposes. Students understand how aircraft fly, how they react to applications of flight controls, the effects of other aircraft systems.Subsonic Wind Tunnel
