Most nations apply entrance exams for Aerospace Engineering students through general engineering admission tests. Candidates seeking admission to IITs through top institutions such as IITs in India must successfully complete both Joint Entrance Examination (JEE) Main and Advanced. American students need to submit their SAT or ACT results and might need to pass additional subject tests determined by university criteria.
Institutional entrance examinations together with interviews are commonly used by universities for assessing whether candidates fit this particular field of study. Aerospace Engineering stands as a specialized field that demands exceptional analytical competence especially in mathematics and physics subjects. The entrance examinations prioritize core subjects of mathematics and physics as well as general aptitude knowledge tests. Certain universities often need students to submit a portfolio and develop an entrance project for both master and PhD degree admission.
