If you would like to develop specialist aviation engineering, technical and management skills without taking commercial pilot ground training, this course will equip you with the skills required for a career in management and operations in the aviation industry.
You’ll have the opportunity to undertake ten hours of flight training at private pilot level while learning how to manage and finance activities in the aviation industry. You’ll also gain a strong science and engineering base with modules on topics like aviation engineering materials and aircraft safety.
You’ll benefit from specialist input throughout the course through the involvement of professional pilots and senior managers from the aviation industry. Bringing working knowledge of advanced communications and navigation systems, management techniques and strategic thinking, these contributions complement the knowledge base provided by the course.

Course programme
Optional modules will also give you the chance to explore related areas such as process chemistry, management or the broader context of surface and air transport in an evolving economy and society.
In Year 2 you’ll learn more about how airlines and airports operate and the practical challenges that arise from commercial, technical, regulatory and political constraints. You’ll also gain an understanding of finance and project management in the context of the aviation industry, considering issues such as price and cost analysis and developing the management skills you’ll need in your future career.
In your final year you’ll learn more about vital issues of safety and reliability in aviation, as well as the health and security issues that affect different elements of the industry. You’ll also deepen your understanding of aerodynamics, aircraft design and construction, and work on a team technology project to apply your knowledge to a specific problem in aviation.
