Entry Requirements
To be eligible for entry, you must have successfully completed one of the following combinations of qualification and relevant work experience. For all qualifications, a minimum Grade Point Average (GPA) of 2.0 out of 4.0, or a minimum of 60% average, is required.
Bachelor Honours (Australian Qualifications Framework (AQF) level 8) in aerospace engineering or aviation.
OR
Bachelor (AQF level 7) in aerospace engineering or aviation and two years of relevant work experience.
OR
Bachelor Honours (AQF level 8) in a non-cognate area and five years of relevant work experience including one year at manager level.
OR
Bachelor (AQF level 7) in a non-cognate area and seven years of relevant work experience including one year at manager level.
OR
A minimum of ten years of relevant work experience.
Note: Aerospace engineering and equivalent areas (aeronautical engineering, avionics engineering, etc.) and aviation and equivalent areas (aviation management, air transport management, etc.) are considered to be cognate areas.
Qualifications are provided with the corresponding AQF level, and international qualifications are assessed according to this framework. Equivalent qualifications to those stated will also be considered, e.g. if you have been certified by Engineers Australia as a Chartered Professional Engineer (CPEng), this is considered equivalent to a Bachelor Honours (AQF level 8) in Engineering. Similarly, if you have been certified by Engineers Australia as a Chartered Engineering Technologist (CEngT), this is considered equivalent to a Bachelor (AQF level 7) in Engineering.
Relevant work experience is considered to be in aviation or a related industry. In some cases it is required that work experience is at manager level. Applicants applying on the basis of any work experience must provide a letter from their employer(s) (or equivalent) verifying their roles and the duration of these. Years of work experience are considered in terms of full-time equivalence.
The Bachelor of Aviation will equip you for a professional career as a commercial pilot. You'll undertake commercial flying training at CAE Oxford Aviation
