Re: Indian air force for engineers

Basically, in IAF, there are 3 Branches for which BE/B Tech students/graduates may apply for. They are-

1 Flying Branch
2 Ground Duty Branch
3 Technical Branch

When it comes to these branches, posts open for Engineers are that of Commissioned Officers. The nature of the Commission varies, depending on the entry scheme- Permanent Commission or SSC (Short Service Commission).

There are following entries you can apply after Engineering to join the Indian Air Force

CDS Entry for flying only
AFCAT for flying, technical and GDOC branch
NCC Special entry
Meteorological Branch Entry
Fast Track Selection

AFCAT Entry:

This is the biggest test conducted for inducting officer in IAF. This test inducts both men and women as officers in all the three branches of IAF, i.e. Flying, Technical and Ground Duty.

AFCTA is conducted twice every year by IAF, and includes an added test called EKT (Engineering Knowledge Test) for Technical branch aspirants. The eligibility and training differs according to each branch
