Question
respected sir,
  i am a girl and shall i join aeronautical engineering?

Answer
Mathurrisai
Your question is complicated by circumstances.  First, I know nothing of India relative to aeronautical engineering.  In the U.S., I believe the prospects for aeronautical engineering (we don't say scope) is good especially in the military complex.  Civilian aerospace jobs may be less available because of the current economic crisis, but that could change by the time you are out of school (maybe not).  But U.S. jobs are often reserved for U.S. citizens because of security problems.  If you were a U.S. citizen, and as you are a female, I would think your prospects would be pretty good.  But since you are not a U.S. citizen - maybe not so good.  Check the Boeing website or other aerospace company websites to see current job opportunities.
