About this course
An understanding of the broader aspects of aircraft maintenance outside the scope of knowledge gained from aircraft maintenance engineering foundation degrees, vocational courses and work experience.
An opportunity to develop and enhance the academic, professional and personal skills necessary for registration as Incorporated Engineers.
The knowledge and skills necessary for you to exploit your potential in the furtherance of your careers and become proficient managers in the aircraft maintenance industry.
If you are an aircraft maintenance engineer who is in possession of an EASA category B licence then this course gives you a fantastic opportunity to gain academic recognition for the training you have undertaken to obtain your licence, and a chance to obtain an Aircraft Engineering BEng(Hons) in two years part time (or one year full time if you can get the time off work). This opportunity is possible because the Kingston University Aircraft Engineering Foundation Degree is basically a B licence course and we are able to use your EASA licence to give you credit for it. Unfortunately, it is only possible to give credit for two-thirds of an award, so we cannot give you the Foundation Degree. But, armed with 240 credits against the Foundation Degree from your licence, you only need to complete 120 credits (at Level 6) in order to achieve the honours degree.
Progression from an appropriate Kingston University Foundation Degree.
Possession of a European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) Part-66 category B Aircraft Maintenance Engineering Licence.
