Air Navigation

Air Navigation is an alternative to the traditional aerospace engineering specializations, aimed at educating specialists in air transport applied engineering. The specifically targeted fields are air navigation (ground and airborne segments, including Air Traffic Management), maintenance and system development and integration.

Air Navigation (AirNav) is a Bachelor of Aerospace Engineering program taught in English, addressed to A-Levels graduates with a good background in mathematics and physics, interested in aeronautics and astronautics. Duration of studies is 4 Years (8 Semesters), with 240 ECTS Credit Points. The program ends with a diploma project and exam.

Air Navigation was established in 2009, with the objective to be adapted to the needs of current civil aviation and aligned to the International Civil Aviation Organization – Next Generation of Aviation Professionals (ICAO NGAP) strategy. The curricula were decided by AirNav Board, a think tank consisting of high profile graduates of the Faculty of Aerospace Engineering.
