What to Expect

The BEng (Hons.) in Aerospace Technology is a Three-year programme based on the British curriculum for higher education awards. During those three years learners will receive a broad education and application in all Aerospace disciplines, such as aerodynamics, flight mechanics, propulsion, structures and systems.

From the very first day of studying at  Emirates Aviation University, learners will use the aircraft as objects of study to gain knowledge about learning skills. As the programme progresses, the learning emphasis shifts gradually from theory to application. Lectures are delivered in conjunction with seminars, laboratory courses and projects where students put the knowledge they have acquired into practice. The paradigm of the programme is skill-based with less focus on theory and more on coursework, hands on experiences and application.

The Aerospace industry has many exciting opportunities - from design and construction to maintenance and operations. The BEng(Hons.) in Aerospace Technology programme will provide learners with the skills and knowledge to pursue these opportunities. Learners will develop the technical skills required to maintain 21st century Aviation and Aerospace fleets into the future. Students will learn how to inspect, maintain, troubleshoot, diagnose, develop and repair aircraft discrepancies using the knowledge and skills they acquired and highly-advanced equipment and techniques.

Accreditation

The Bachelor of Engineering (Hons) in Aerospace Technology is a dual award programme conferred by Emirates Aviation University and Coventry University, UK.

  • This degree has been accredited by the Royal Aeronautical Society (RAeS) under licence from the UK regulator, the Engineering Council.  Accreditation is a mark of assurance that the degree meets the standards set by the Engineering Council in the UK Standard for Professional Engineering Competence (UK-SPEC).  An accredited degree will provide you with some or all of the underpinning knowledge, understanding and skills for eventual registration as an Incorporated (IEng).  Some employers recruit preferentially from accredited degrees, and an accredited degree is likely to be recognised by other countries that are signatories to international accords.
Your EAU advantage

Our programmes provide you with the essential skills and knowledge required to succeed in your chosen specialisation and the aviation industry in general.

Future career opportunities

The programme aims to equip graduates with the skills to become successful engineers and engineering managers, both in aerospace and other engineering industry. Graduates of this programme have gone on to become aircraft maintenance engineers, planning engineers, design engineers, quality engineers and engineering managers for a wide variety of companies. Some have chosen to become pilots while others chose to pursue a higher education (Master’s and PhD degrees) in several engineering areas that include Aeronautical and Mechanical Engineering.

Practical Experience

Not only will students learn comprehensive theory, but EAU will also provide to the students the means to gain practical experience in well-equipped laboratories and workshops as well as hands on experience in a real workplace environment through on job training and internships.

Accreditation for Prior Learning(APL):

(APL) is an academic process that recognises and values students previous studies.

(APL) is allowed in year 1 and year 2, but not year 3. i.e. students can skip modules offered in the first year and/or  in the second year if they had already studied these or equivalent modules at another institution.  However, all offered modules in year 3 will have to be undertaken.
