To pursue an Aircraft Maintenance Engineering (AME) course at MIA (Meerut International Aviation), candidates must have completed 10+2 with Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics (PCM) or hold a three-year engineering diploma in a relevant field. The minimum age requirement is typically 16 years. Admission is granted through entrance exams like AME CET or based on merit, depending on the institution’s admission process. Candidates must also meet the medical fitness criteria as per DGCA regulations.
AME is a specialized course that trains students in aircraft maintenance, troubleshooting, and safety inspections. The program is approved by the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) in India. The duration of the AME course is generally 2 to 4 years, depending on the chosen stream (B1.1, B1.2, B2). After completing the course, students must clear DGCA licensing exams to become certified AMEs. Career opportunities exist in airlines, MRO (Maintenance, Repair, and Overhaul) organizations, and aircraft manufacturing companies.
