The Master’s degree programme in Thermal and Propulsion provides an opportunity for B.Tech or equivalent degree holders in Aerospace/Aeronautical/Mechanical/Chemical Engineering to specialize in the field of thermal-fluid sciences and propulsion engineering. This curriculum encompasses fundamental and advanced courses from the areas of fluid mechanics, heat transfer, combustion, propulsion technology, computational fluid dynamics, and two-phase flows.The faculty resources and infrastructure available in the department helps to inculcate independent research activities and practical system designs with innovation. The research activities are supported by a Centre of Excellence in Advanced Propulsion and Laser Diagnostics along with other research facilities in combustion and flame diagnostics, heat transfer, two-phase flows, high-speed flows, etc. The students also have access to a computational facility where computational research involving modeling and simulation is promoted using commercial, open-source

Out of the graduated students of M.Tech in Thermal and Propulsion, about 23% of them are undergoing higher studies in reputed Universities within the country and abroad including IISC Bangalore, and IITs. About 57% have been placed in different reputed firms such as CSIR National laboratories, Indian Space Research organization, Air India Engineering Services LTD, Skyroot Aerospace Pvt. Ltd. to name a few.
