Program Overview

For prospective pilots, the ability to complete flight training together with an honours degree provides the student with a unique opportunity to take a blended approach to becoming a professional pilot.

The benefit of being able to experience life on campus enables students to develop social and interpersonal skills. The final year of the programme affords students the opportunity to complete their third level studies whilst working as a pilot through the delivery of exclusively online lectures tailored for actively working aviation professionals.

This is an ab-initio programme that provides embedded pilot training as part of a level 8 degree. This programme will see students study on campus for one year, undertake pilot training for a further two years, and then complete the final year of study online while working.
