Hello,

Yes, you can take the GATE exam in Aerospace Engineering after completing your B.Tech in CSE with a specialisation in AI & ML. The GATE exam opens up opportunities to many engineers from diverse engineering streams for most of the subjects, including that of Aerospace Engineering provided one's eligibility criteria for participation are aligned with that required by the conducting authorities.

Here is your suggested plan to pursue:

Do you understand GATE Eligibility ? Verify whether you meet the eligibility criteria for Aerospace Engineering. They generally accept candidates with a degree in engineering or technology.

Study Syllabus: Review the GATE Aerospace Engineering syllabus. Focus on a few important streams of fluid mechanics, thermodynamics, and structural mechanics which are not a part of your CSE course.

Study Materials: Get study material that shall include books, online course materials, and particular GATE preparation books specific to Aerospace Engineering.

Solving previous years' GATE papers is very important to understand the pattern of the exam and what questions are most asked.

Coaching or Study Groups : One may take coaching classes or join a study group where guided preparation is provided for Aerospace Engineering.

Higher Studies: If, after the GATE exam, you are interested in a career in aerospace, you must seriously consider that you would want to do a Master's in Aerospace Engineering to further improve your knowledge and skills in the field.

By following the above steps, you certainly can make the transition from CSE to Aerospace Engineering, but this time by making proper preparations for GATE.
