About

Do you have an engineering foundation degree from Kingston University? Or, do you hold an EASA Cat B aircraft engineering licence? If so, this course is a perfect choice to top-up your qualification to an honours degree.

Your studies will include exploring the performance of fixed-wing and rotary-wing aircraft and analysis of their structures, and evaluating materials for aircraft applications.

You'll also study the principles of air transport economics and how they affect management decision-making and project planning and mapping. You'll also undertake group and individual projects on industry-related topics.

This forerunner of this course, the Aircraft Engineering Foundation Degree, plus the BSc (Hons) top-up was delivered for 13 years (2001 to 2013). During that time, many hundreds of students achieved the foundation award and went on to obtain careers in the aircraft maintenance industry. And, several hundred practising licensed engineers completed the honours top-up to complement their vocational licence. Therefore, it would probably be true to say that you will find an ex-Kingston aircraft engineering student in almost every maintenance organisation in the UK and many overseas.
