Question
Dear Sir,
I am an Electrical and Electronics Engineering student
studying in India.
As a child, I was very enthusiastic in the field of
Aviation.Flying always fascinates me...I would like to
continue my further studies in this field... I am planning
of Pursuing an M.S. in Avionics or aeronautics after my
Bachelor's course. Kindly advice me on what these subjects
are all about and the expenses if I would have to do it
outside India.
I would be delighted to receive an answer from you sir!
Thank you!

With best wishes
Saiman


Answer
Check the websites of various engineering schools, examine the curricula, and follow the links to international student requirements and fees.  A partial list of U.S. schools can be found at:

You might start with:

U. of Washington - Seattle
Embry Riddle - Florida

which for some reason are not on the above list.  You can also search on engineering schools U.S.

Being an EE major, I doubt you have the necessary academic experience for graduate work in aeronautics.  But it could be obtained.  Avionics can be studied at the bachelor level, but I have not heard of a graduate program in that subject.  Ask the schools of your choice about your options.
