Master of Aeronautical Engineering

PROFESSIONAL ASSESSMENT TEST:

Test is held in three stages:

First stage (duration 1 hour 30 minutes)

The first stage is to assess operational abilities required for profession (with pencil on paper):

• “Compasses” and “Clocks” examine spatial orientation - the ability to focus on a plane and in the three-dimensional space;
• “Scale 1” examines the short-term memory and the ability to quickly calculate;
• "Device awareness”, “Block computing" and "Rotated blocks” examines spatial orientation/visualization (the ability to create a three-dimensional model of the situation from the available information);
• "Hidden figures” examines the attention allocation;
• “The information in the table” examines information perception and attention allocation.

Second stage (duration 2 hours 30 minutes)

Applicants carry out three individual tests:

• MMPI methodology to diagnose personality characteristics and deviations from the norm;
• Holland Methodology - to assess adequacy of career choices and fitness for the profession;
• Kraepelin methodology – to assess mental productivity and focus variations.

In the third stage (duration 1 hour) candidates participate in three individual interviews with each of the members of the enrolment commission. These interviews assess individual personality characteristics.

STUDY PROGRAMMEThe programme includes:

• 14 ATPL (Airline Transport Pilot License) courses
• 215 hours of aircraft piloting training;
• 55 hours on the simulator FNPT II MCC.

All AGAI’s theoretical and practical training activities meet the standard requirements of international aviation organizations ICAO and EASA as certified by Lithuanian Civil Aviation Administration.

Our students acquire:

• Master’s degree in Aeronautical Engineering
• ATPL license issued by the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA).

Aircrafts for training: Cessna 152, Cessna 172, Cessna 172S, Piper Pa-34-220T; Helicopters: Cabri G2 Flight simulator: FNPT II MCC for aircrafts Cessna 172, Piper Seneca, Beachcraft King Air 200 and not certified FNPT type Boeing 737; Training aerodrome: Kyviškės aerodrome (20 km outside of Vilnius).

AFTER STUDIES

After a five-year Aircraft Piloting degree programme, the student receives Master's degree in Aeronautical Engineering. A graduate of the programme is also prepared for ATPL - Airline Transport Pilot Licence. The license is issued by the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA). To obtain the licence the student has to complete ATPL programme and take exams at CAA. With the license student can go to a specific employer and train on the particular aircraft type.
