Diploma in Aerospace Systems & Management
Singapore’s aerospace industry is flying high!
The aerospace industry has consistently achieved double-digit annual growth rate over the last 20 years. With the huge investment of S$60 million to develop the new Seletar Aerospace park to host a wide range of activities including MRO (maintenance, repair and overhaul), design and manufacturing of aerospace systems and components, business and general aviation activities, demand for specialized aerospace professionals is set to sky-high in the coming years.
The Diploma in Aerospace Systems and Management is your passport to a high-flying and rewarding professional career in this booming aerospace industry.
Strongly supported by the industry, the course is designed to groom a new breed of aerospace technologists with expertise in aerospace system development and maintenance as well as in the management and operation of aviation services, airport and facilities. You will also be equipped to support the aerospace-related electronics industry.
You will learn knowledge and skills in system development, integration and maintenance of aerospace (avionic) systems including electronic, electrical, communication & control systems on board the aircraft. You will be prepared for the Basic knowledge examinations necessary for the grant of the Aircraft Maintenance License (Category B2 – Avionics and Electrical Systems) under the Singapore Airworthiness Requirements (SAR-66) by the Civil Aviation Authority of Singapore (CAAS).
The course may even inspire you to be a professional pilot!
Aviation Business is an exciting and dynamic industry across the world and Singapore is in the forefront with one of the world’s best airports and excellent airlines. This creates a high demand for aviation management professionals. To prepare you for the many career opportunities available, this course will also groom you to manage, plan and operate aviation services, airport and facilities.
You will acquire the expertise needed for today’s aerospace businesses with our modern state-of-the-art training facilities. You have opportunities to sharpen your technical and analytical skills through attachment to key aerospace companies to gain valuable industrial experience.
You will also get the chance to experience different cultures and business lifestyles through the Overseas Industrial Attachment Programme.
Course Aims
The course will develop graduates with expertise in
system development & integration and MRO (maintenance, repair and overhaul) of aerospace systems
management and operations of aviation services, airport and facilities
supporting of the aerospace-related electronics industry
Duration : 3 academic years on a full-time basis.
Career Prospects
You can look forward to exciting and rewarding careers as technologists, engineers & managers in the booming aerospace industry sectors such as:
Aerospace MRO (Maintenance, Repair & Overhaul)
Avionics Development
Avionics Manufacturing
Aviation Services
Fleet Management
Civil Aviation Authorities
Airport operation and management
Entry Requirements
Applicants for diploma courses must obtain the following minimum "O"-Level results:
English Language (EL1) Grade 1 - 7
Elementary/Additional Mathematics Grade 1 - 6
A relevant Science subject* Grade 1 - 6
Please see section on Entry Requirements for Diploma Courses for more details.
Further Studies Opportunities
For graduates who intend to pursue higher education, the Diploma in Aerospace Systems and Management will also enable you to move on to obtain a degree in NUS, NTU or overseas universities.
Course Structure
The first two years of the curriculum focus on the development of strong electrical and electronic fundamentals, aerospace knowledge and avionics (aerospace electronics) systems know-how and integration. You will undertake avionics and aerospace systems projects to develop your integration and testing skills. Safety and operations management know-how will also be covered through case studies and projects.The third and final year of training will focus on the technologies in aircraft aerospace systems and aviation management. You will conduct system integration, testing and deployment of such systems and learn to project manage effectively.
You will also acquire knowledge in aviation operation and management, aerospace supply chain management and avionics product design.You will undergo a 6-month Industrial Attachment Programme (IAP) or a 3-month full-time Project Development and a 3-month Industrial Attachment Programme in relevant companies. The attachment programme could also be an Overseas Industrial Placement Programme.
