The Guardians of Global Airworthiness and Safety.

Code
AME 101–103
Duration
3 years
Intake
60 per stream
Fee
6,575 to 15,780 USD per head

A highly specialized engineering track offering streams in Mechanical, Avionics, and Rotor Blade systems.

This program strictly adheres to DGCA, FAA, and EASA regulatory frameworks. Students are immersed in the mechanical and digital heartbeat of the aircraft, mastering everything from gas turbine engine overhauls and fly-by-wire logic to Non-Destructive Testing (NDT), ensuring every machine remains flawlessly "flyable" under grueling conditions.

Fee Structure & Program Capacity

The Aircraft Maintenance Engineering (AME) program is a specialized 3-year track with a strict intake of 60 cadets per stream to ensure hands-on mastery. The total fee varies by technical specialization: Mechanical engineering is structured at 7,889 USD per head. The advanced Avionics stream requires 15,780 USD per head , while the highly targeted Rotor Blade engineering track is offered at 6,575 USD per head.

General Knowledge & Eligibility

This intensive engineering program is designed to forge the ultimate guardians of global airworthiness and aviation safety. Candidates must possess a strong foundational aptitude for mechanics, electronics, and precision work. The curriculum strictly adheres to the rigorous international regulatory frameworks established by the DGCA, FAA, and EASA, ensuring graduates meet the legal and technical standards required to certify commercial aircraft worldwide.

Curriculum & Practical Exposure

AME cadets are completely immersed in both the mechanical and digital heartbeat of modern aircraft throughout their training. The syllabus goes far beyond classroom theory, requiring students to master complex gas turbine engine overhauls, interpret intricate fly-by-wire logic, and execute precision Non-Destructive Testing (NDT). This guarantees that every engineer is equipped to ensure aircraft remain flawlessly "flyable" under grueling conditions.
