The professional soft-skills training were in line with the current industry requirements which enabled me to face, crack and grab the opportunities in other sectors too. Overall, the training was a power-packed starter for me to start my career as an engineer in the  aerospace domain.

Know More

I had undergone a 12 month training at Avistrat for the Aerospace Structural Engineer – Designer job role. Being a mechanical engineering student, I never felt the void in me of not belonging to the aerospace domain during my training. The concepts of design and it’s thinking were made easy to understand by correlating all the examples with aircraft and aerospace components. The professional soft-skills training were in line with the current industry requirements which enabled me to face, crack and grab the opportunities in other sectors too. Overall, the training was a power-packed starter for me to start my career as an engineer in the aerospace domain. I would like to thank the Programme Director Mr. Shashank Rawat for being my mentor throughout the training in helping me achieve this, other faculties and staff for giving this enriched knowledge and valuable experience.
