Does IIT Kanpur have Aeronautical Engineering?
At Aerospace engineering department at IIT Kanpur, students are encouraged to meet and interact with eminent researchers from across the globe through participation in international conferences, workshops and competitions to introduce them to novel ideas related to their field of interest.The Aerospace Engineering department at IIT Kanpur, was established in 1964, The Department came as a decision taken by (late Prof.) Dhawan Committee which predicted the need of large number of Aeronautical Engineers to meet the national needs. IIT Kanpur was conceptualized as an Indo/American collaboration. Aeronautical Engineering was also introduced in the same context.
