Industrial Visits & Internships

Industrial Visit- ISRO

The students of 6th semester from Department of Aeronautical Engineering visited Department of Space ISRO telemetry tracking and command network (ISTRAC) Indian deep space network(IDSN) on 27th April 2023 as a part of Industrial Visit Program.

Around 10.30am they reached ISRO campus. At first a presentation was given about the overview of ISRO and its programs by one of the employee Mr.Shankar Madaswami. The presentation shotheyd the evolution of Indian Space Programs over decades. The information was given about the present and future programs of ISRO such as Mangalyaan, Chandrayaan1, Chandrayaan2, NAVIC satellite systems, building of second launch pad in Kanyakumari, Aditya Mission.

Next they visited the 18m diameter antenna in the campus. Then explained about the working of antenna that is how automatically it turns towards the satellite with the help of servo motors. This system helps in communication with satellite and to track the health of satellite. This antenna is capable of working on both S and X bands but mainly operated on S band. It would be soon made use to work for aditya mission.

Next they visited to the gigantic 32m diameter antenna. The construction and working of such huge structure was explained very well. These antennas have 2way communication system i.e, it did both transmitting and receiving of signals. It was presently tracking the Chandrayaan2 mission. The devices used to calibrate and analyse the signals were shown to us.

Lastly they visited the Data Storage Unit of ISTRAC. There they got to see many instruments which analyses and stores the data. The hard drives which contains the data of every Indian Space Mission were stored with utmost care and was written with amazing technology. They got to see live tracking of Chandrayaan2 mission.

Overall it was very informative visit. Interaction with those experienced as well as young scientists was very inspiring. It was exciting and proud to see one of the finest engineering and technology of India.

Industry Internship Program

The only way to compete in the real world is to have real-world experiences. The internship program allows students to work in a premier industry for 30-60 days (can be further extended), giving them valuable industry experience. The students get introduced to industry culture and trained as the future workforce and involved with industry leadership.
