This is the Andhra Pradesh - Post Graduate Engineering Common Entrance Test (APPGECET) Aerospace Engineering syllabus:

Linear Algebra: Matrix algebra, systems of linear equations, Eigen values and Eigen vectors.
Calculus: Functions of single variable, limit, continuity and differentiability, mean value theorems, evaluation of
definite and improper integrals, partial derivatives, total derivative, maxima and minima, gradient, divergence and
curl, vector identities, directional derivatives, line, surface and volume integrals. Theorems of Stokes, Gauss and
Green.
Differential Calculus: First order linear and nonlinear equations; higher order linear ODEs with constant
coefficients, Cauchy and Euler equations, and initial and boundary value problems, Laplace transforms. Partial
differential equations and separation of variables methods.
Numerical methods: Numerical solution of linear and nonlinear algebraic equations, integration by trapezoidal and
Simpson rule, single and multi-step methods for differential equations.
