Bachelor of Aviation overview
- UniSQ's Bachelor of Aviation allows you to prepare for a career in an exciting and fast-paced industry, with the option to take various study paths depending on your interest area. Kickstart your career in the skies and train to become a pilot by undertaking our Flight Operations major. Or be in the heart of the action by exploring an exciting ground breaking role with our Aviation Management major.
- From the onset, you’ll undertake aviation specific courses and have the opportunity to study areas such as aviation safety systems, human performance in aviation, aviation business and aircraft operations.
- Students undertaking the Flight Operations path will gain professional pilot qualifications issued by the Australian Civil Aviation Safety Authority.
- Our professional development program forms part of each of your university courses and you will receive credit towards your degree.
- You will learn from current and former airline, military and instructor pilots, and aviation managers who are not only highly-acclaimed academics but professionals in the aviation field.
- See and experience the aviation industry first-hand by flying in our world-class flight simulators in your first year of study! The first of their kind in Queensland, UniSQ’s simulators are designs based on Boeing 737 and Airbus A320 aircrafts. These simulators are able to replicate an entire flight, both normal and abnormal scenarios, while completing checks and procedures just like airline pilots do.
- Have the opportunity to be considered for the Qantas Group Aviation Career Enrichment Program (Q-ACE), with access to experienced pilots during your degree. Students who complete the Q-ACE program will be provided with a link by the Qantas Group to update their aviation experience every six months. Once the minimum direct entry pilot recruitment requirements are met for one of the Qantas Group airlines, they will be extended an invitation to attend a Qantas Group Assessment Centre, subject to operational requirements
