Aviation Management/Aviation Management with Pilot Studies/Aviation Management with Air Traffic Controller Studies
Whether you’re planning an aviation career as a manager or as a commercial pilot, a foundation in the business management principles of the industry is key to success in this challenging and rapidly changing sector.
It’s well recognised that, in the near future, the aviation industry will require increased numbers of new pilots and other trained specialist staff to operate the expanding global air fleet.
The first three years of the course provide a general introduction to business analysis, the aviation sector, technical aspects of piloting and industry relevant work experience. In the fourth year, the course divides into two streams. Some students will opt to enter flight training to qualify as a commercial pilot; others will choose to enter the IAA's air traffic controller (ATCO) training programme. The remainder will remain in DCU to follow additional management and aviation modules.
The course equipped me with skills such as teamwork, problem solving, excellent communication skills and strong analytical skills. I developed a broad understanding of the aviation industry, which made me attractive to employers recruiting within the industry.
