The institute blends modern academic instruction with extensive hands-on workshops and live aircraft exposure — including training on operational Cessna and Learjet aircraft — to develop technically competent AME professionals. With experienced faculty, well-equipped labs, and strategic industry linkages (including practical training collaborations), IAME prepares students for challenging careers in aviation maintenance, certification, and aerospace engineering.
IAME offers a DGCA-approved Aircraft Maintenance Engineering (AME) training programme under CAR-147 (Basic), providing instruction in both:
