i want to pursue a degree from abroad in aeronautics,like getting M.S.in fields related to aviation,

1).Can i go for a higher educational qualifications from abroad(us, uk etc) universities after i get into iaf as a officer in technical branch?

| Answer: Aeronautical engineering and electronics and communication are two different fields.You would get entry into the Technical Branch of IAF with your qualification.While the duty of the aeronautical engineers is to ensure proper maintenance of all aircraft,the electronics deptt. looks into the communication,electronics and signals.
You can go for a higher education abroad provided you fulfil their eligibility criteria.
The provision for a sabbatical depends entirely on your commissioning and the IAF. IAF and other armed forces nominate candidates for higher studies typically in top Indian Universities and IITs, which you can consider. |
