There are many colleges offering Aircraft Maintenance Engineering course. Different colleges have different admission criteria, but the per-requisite qualification is mostly the same. Yet the candidates are advised to check the admission criteria of the colleges they are applying to.Eligibility for the AME course is 10+2 with 60% marks in physics, chemistry and mathematics.

The candidate completing AME cannot be considered as a graduate because this is not a graduate course.It is a license course or a professional course. Those who want to become a graduate in this discipline may opt for an Aeronautical Engineering course. Those who complete B.E./B.Tech.in Aeronautical Engineering cannot be considered for issuing an AME license until they pass the test for issuing license. After obtaining the license only then can they enroll themselves as Aircraft Maintenance Engineers.

On successful completion of the AME course, a license is issued by the competent authority giving the candidate the right to undertake all kinds of maintenance works of aircraft. The license is highly valued and the aircraft maintenance engineer is fully in charge of making the aircraft ready and safe to fly.The flight cannot take off without the approval of an AME. Thus,the AME has the right and the responsibility to make the flight OK by testing and checking all essential components of an aircraft for smooth functioning. The safety mechanism is an important aspect of the duty of an AME.
Though all candidates have equal Aircraft Maintenance Engineering opportunities, but the popular colleges can grab more opportunities for their students by collaborating with the aviation companies. So, better college means better opportunities. The total fee for the course may vary from college to college in terms of their popularity and services rendering in imparting the course, but it is usually around Rs. 4 lakhs to 6 lakhs.
