| Program Description |
| | The Bachelor of Technology with Aviation is an engineering-style program that emphasises electronics, computing and control theory relevant to aircraft control systems and instrumentation.
The aviation degree has a common first year with the Bachelor of Computer and Communication Technology and includes aviation theory and practical training as essential areas of study. On completion of the program, you will gain dual professional qualifications: a degree with applications in the electronics industry and a Commercial Pilot Licence.
Career Outcomes
As a graduate of this program you will be qualified as a pilot and prepared for employment in general aviation which involves charter work, flight instruction (theory and practical) and other aerial services such as agricultural spraying, aerial surveying and photography.
You will also be able to apply the microelectronics component of your degree as a technician. Opportunities for employment exist in the electronics industry, aircraft instrumentation in the avionics industry, research laboratories and government departments.
