Graduate Engineering Traineeship (Aircraft Design)

ABOUT AVISTRAT AND THE PROGRAMME:

Avistrat is a design engineering capability builder focused on strengthening aerospace engineering capacity across industry. We partner with aerospace organisationsfrom established engineering firms to high-growth startupsto develop design-ready engineers capable of contributing to real aerospace design work.

Our Graduate Engineering Traineeship (GET) is Avistrats flagship capability pathway. The programme is designed to go beyond employability preparation by enabling a direct transition into aerospace design roles through structured design immersion, engineering accountability, and exposure to real industry workflows.

PROGRAMME PHILOSOPHY:

At Avistrat, we believe aerospace capability is built through experiential design work , not classroom instruction alone. Design readiness requires engineers to engage with real problems, real constraints, and real engineering expectations.

Selected candidates develop industry-aligned specialisation while working on live aerospace projects in professional environments, often in collaboration with our partner organisations. The emphasis is on systems thinking, engineering judgment, and the ability to translate theory into defensible design outcomes.

If you are serious about working in aerospace design, this programme is built for practical engineering contribution , not just academic reinforcement.

WHAT THE GET PROGRAMME OFFERS:

• Build hands-on experience through aerospace design projects
• Develop specialisation aligned to industry design requirements
• Engage with real engineering tools, and review processes
• Gain exposure to professional aerospace work environments
• Strengthen readiness for internships and full-time design roles

DOMAINS INCLUDE:

• Structural Design & Analysis
• Aerodynamics
• Aircraft Systems and Avionics

PROGRAMME STRUCTURE:

• Duration: Approximately 1315 weeks (3.54 months)
• Format: Design immersion combining online guided capability development with applied project work
• Design Focus Areas: Structural design, aerodynamics and aircraft systems
• Internship Opportunity: Shortlisted candidates may be considered for internships with partner aerospace organisations. Internship selection is subject to separate interviews and evaluation by the host organisation.

SELECTION PROCESS:

The selection process is designed to assess engineering aptitude, motivation, and readiness :

1. Preliminary interaction with Avistrat
2. Interview for entry into Avistrats Aircraft Design Capability Programme
3. Additional interviews as required for internship opportunities

ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA:

• Graduates or final-year students in M.Tech (Aerospace, Mechanical, or Electronics preferred)
• B.Tech Aeronautical Engineering graduates with relevant internship experience may be considered
• Minimum CGPA 6.0 or 60% preferred
• Ability to collaborate effectively and communicate engineering ideas clearly
• Strong motivation to work in the aerospace sector

PREFERRED BACKGROUND:

• Prior aerospace project work or internship experience
• Familiarity with modelling and simulation tools such as CATIA, SolidWorks, or ANSYS

The Graduate Engineering Traineeship is ideal for candidates seeking to move beyond academic preparation and develop the design engineering capability required to operate within real aerospace project environments .
