تفاصيل الدورة

The Diploma in Aerospace Engineering (DAE) gives you a head start in launching a career in this fast-growing and dynamic field. Through the DAE you will gain a solid grounding in aircraft structural maintenance, and engine maintenance and repair, while learning all about the strict aviation regulations that govern this global industry. Students acquire hands-on training in our first-rate laboratories, which include a new hangar facility with an actual aircraft.

Industry attachments with maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) companies will allow you to hone your technical skills to jump-start your career with leading aviation companies such as ST Aerospace, Pratt & Whitney, Rolls-Royce, and Airbus Helicopter.

Course Outcomes

• Gain a solid grounding in aircraft structural maintenance, and engine maintenance and repair
• Appreciate the complexities of aerospace engineering and safety protocols
• Acquire the necessary mechanical engineering skills to join the fast-growing MRO market in Asia
• Undergo a 20-week industry attachment programme with an aerospace company such as Vector Aerospace Asia, United Technologies Aerospace System (UTAS), or Singapore Aero Engine Services (SAESL)

Career Opportunities

With a solid foundation of technical skills, DAE graduates are well prepared for a wide range of careers in the aviation industry. You will be able to pursue opportunities in roles such as:

• Airframe and Engine Inspector
• Licenced Aircraft Engineer (LAE)
• Material/Production Planner
• Non-Destructive Testing Specialist
