What is the scope of aerospace engineering in pakistan?

Answer 1

Pretty wide actually but with limitations since Pakistan is still relatively new to the Aerospace industry.

Pakistan does not build Passenger jets.

Pakistan also does not build helicopters. However, a Pakistani Engineer did build one in his garage. You can check out the video on YouTube. This is proof that the nation certainly has talented individuals and with more focus it very well can build just about anything it pleases.

In terms of manned aircraft design & development the nation's capabilities are limited. With products such as the K-8 trainer and the new JF-17 fighter, Pakistan's Aerospace industry in terms of aircraft development is relatively new but growing. No doubt, as India begins producing impressive indigenous aircraft such as the Saras, LCA, MCA and LCH, Pakistan will have to step up its game to face the challenge. This will result in a rise in demand for Aerospace Engineers.

Unmanned aircraft however is a different story. Pakistan has had incredible success in developing unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). So much so that even nations such as Australia and the United States (the US border patrol) have bought UAVs such as the 'Border Eagle' UAV from private Pakistani Aerospace companies like Integrated Dynamics.

In other areas of Aerospace such as Missile development Pakistan also excels, some would argue it is ahead of India (this has been stated even by Indian media) in this field. Pakistan builds a large number of Ballistic missiles such as the Nasr, Abdali, Ghauri and Shaheen series. In addition, it also builds cruise missiles such as the Babur and Ra'ad.

Furthermore, Pakistan has also built quite a few satellites as well such as the Badr-1, Badr-2 and Pak-Sat that were all successfully launched into orbit.

Being a relatively young country, Pakistan is new to the Aerospace industry. However, every nation has to start somewhere. It looks like Pakistan has had more successes than failures so it looks like it is on the right track. Furthermore, if this country has the intelligence and talent required to build a nuclear bomb then it by all means possessed the merit to develop just about anything it wants or needs. All it takes is government funding but unfortunately, Pakistan's talented youth and professionals have been suppressed for decades by its incompetent leaders. If this changes, the country has the potential to become a greater world player than it is now.

No doubt its scope is really good. Far then your thinking. In UMT lahore you'll do 5.5 years course with license and degree also. with the EASA part #66 license and its demand. emirates have now have offered more salary to AME than an initial pilot. I've also applied in UMT,Lahore and i'm pretty satisfied with its scope as our HOD told us. exam will be held under German Institute and at the time of completing this degree and license you'll have 5 years experience in CAA Official Catalog Book that means you've completed your degree and license and you're ready to get high salaries in Pakistan and Abroad.. and its total fee in UMT is 1725000

Do search for its scope. Visit or call UMT for more information.

Thanks. I'm not umt official person .. but a student there.
