Answer Hi,
Thank you for your question, I will try to assist!
With regard to your first question, I am only aware of one master's degree in aviation offered in India and that it at the University of Petroleum and Energy Studies, Centre for Aviation Studies in Dehradun, India. Their website is http://cas.upes.ac.in
They offer an MBA in Aviation Management. Your only other option would be to do a web-based (on-line) degree from one of two US universities, Embry Riddle Aeronautical University in Daytona Beach, Florida or Daniel Webster University in Nashua, New Hampshire. Actually, there are very few such programs available anywhere and these are the three that I see the most advertising and publicity for.
As far as choosing among these three programs, I would look at how they are accredited, what their faculty qualifications are (particularly in aviation, if that is where you want to end up) and what type of education that you value (face-to-face or on-line), and, then, of course, the cost.
