The duration for the B.Tech Aeronautical Engineering + Commercial Pilot License course is usually five years. This is an integrated course, which would acquire both theoretical knowledge in aeronautical engineering and practical training for obtaining a CPL. The course is designed to enable students to comprehend aircraft design, aerodynamics, propulsion systems, and avionics, besides which is the flight training experience.
The first few years will involve subjects such as aeronautical engineering and principles coupled with the core of aviation theory covering areas such as navigation, meteorology, and air regulations. The latter period of the training usually entails intensive flight by students, and this they will do through any of the accredited flight schools in order to log the statutory hours to claim the CPL certificates.
The dual qualification will provide graduates with technical expertise and eligibility to work as professional pilots or aeronautical engineers. This program is especially designed to meet industry demands, ensuring the offering of a dual package comprising engineering knowledge and aviation skills for an aerospace-related career.
