We are back with yet another niche sector MBA course. This time it is Aviation Management and Port & Shipping Management. With the opening of Aviation sector, privatization of Ports and Shipping infrastructure, setting-up of dedicated Automotive Design shops, Indian Transportation sector is sure on a roll.

• India is the third fastest growing domestic aviation market in the world. Last year, it grew by 23%

• Will be the third largest market for new aircrafts in Asia, behind China (1,790) and Japan (640)

• 330 new planes are likely to be added to Indian skies in the next 15 years which would add 2.6 lakh seats a day on domestic flights

• Over the next 2 decades, India is envisaged to be one of the largest Aerospace Markets in the world for wide and narrow body aircrafts

• Indian aerospace and defense industry is emerging as a key player in the Asia Pacific aerospace and defense market.
