Synopsis
The Department of Aeronautical Engineering is responsible to offer the faculty's recognized work-relevant education
programs which are Bachelor of Aeronautical Engineering Technology (Professional Piloting) with Honours and
Bachelor of Aeronautical Engineering Technology (Aircraft Maintenance) with Honours. In order to produce
competent, technically skilful and innovative graduates, these programs are designed to have a combination of
engineering degree components and professional licensing components. For the engineering degree components,
the offered courses cover all areas under aeronautical engineering technology such as aerodynamics, aircraft
structure and design, propulsion, aircraft systems and control, and material technology. These courses are
conducted through lectures, tutorials, laboratory experiments, bachelor degree project, workshop practices, and
industrial training, which are all accredited by Malaysian Qualifications Agency (MQA).
The professional licensing components are all required courses for pilot training and aircraft maintenance engineer.
For these professional licensing components, students will go through structured programs that are authorized by
the Department of Civil Aviation Malaysia (DCAM). The programs contain both theoretical and practical aspects that
finally enable students to obtain Airline Transport Pilot License (ATPL frozen) and Aircraft Maintenance Engineer
License (AMEL LWTR) respectively. The tremendous feature in these programs which combines aeronautical
engineering degree and professional licensing is the completion will only take 4 years.
Objective of this Technical Visit is to get some insight on the establishment of the Department of Aeronautical
Engineering at the Faculty of Mechanical & Manufacturing Engineering, UTHM and a visit to their laboratory and
Aircraft Hangar.
