Bachelor of Aviation (Flight Operations), University of Southern Queensland

The Bachelor of Aviation (Flight Operations) at UniSQ is designed for students aiming to become professional pilots. The course provides opportunities to experience flying early in the program, with flight training integrated into the curriculum in the second year. Students will study both technical aviation subjects and essential non-technical skills like safety management and international aviation understanding, which are crucial for job interviews. The program features state-of-the-art flight simulators based on Boeing 737 and Airbus A320 aircraft, allowing students to simulate complete flights, including normal and abnormal scenarios. An attractive aspect is the potential to join the Qantas Group Aviation Career Enrichment Program (Q-ACE), leading to employment with QantasLink after an intensive airline transition course. The structure combines classroom learning and hands-on flight training, with options for on-campus or online study in the later years.
