Aerospace Engineering Colleges of the Year 2022 umanity is blessed with the ability to think, and a man's desire to do something extraordinary has H shaped the world into what it is today. One of the most daring adventures that man has encountered was flying. In many mythologies, stories and fiction works, humans have deliberately expressed their wish to fly high in the blue sky and feel weightless. When Wright Brothers designed and flew the world's first successful motor-operated aeroplane, it was clear that humanity was one step closer to achieving its long dream to fly high. World War II significantly changed humanity's flying venture, and after the end of the war, people made aeroplanes available for everyone. Commercialising air transport then opened the door to multiple options for business, and today, it has become one of the significant modes of transport connecting with the world. With the increasing population and the never-dying human desire to fly, many aspirants wished to fly the mighty objects in the air and explore different parts of the world. Many prominent educational institutes recognised this need and contributed to humanity's lifelong dream of flying by setting up their institutes to teach, train and upskill the students to fly different types of aeroplanes. With a vision to transform society and feed India's innovation and entrepreneurial culture, MIT-ADT University also introduced the course of Aerospace engineering, among its other engineering courses.
