Aviation Engineering & Aerospace Sciences

College Information:
Aviation Australia is Australiafs leading aviation industry training centre. Owned by the Queensland Government and located at Brisbane International Airport. The multi-million dollar training centre conducts a wide range of courses in Aviation Engineering, Management and Flight Attendant (Cabin Crew) training.
Current industry clients include Qantas, Virgin Blue, Boeing, Cathay Pacific, Air New Zealand and many more. This is a PROFESSIONALaircraft maintenance engineering training centre used by major airlines for staff training.
campus

From 2007, Aviation Australia opened their Aircraft Englineering Training Centre to international students who are interested in gaining a professional industry qualification. Engineering students will have the opportunity to train in the same facilities as the airlines use and will be trained by former or current airline engineering staff. Training includes practical experience working on a range of aircraft on campus including a functioning 727 aircraft owned by the school. Training conforms to the EASA standard and covers the theoretical component of the internationally recognised Aircraft Maintenance Engineer's Licence.

Graduate Outcomes and Employment
Australian Academic Diploma:
Graduates will receive a formal Australian academic qualification certificate: Diploma of Aircraft Maintenance Engineering (or Dual Diploma of Aircraft Maintenance Engineering) with transcripts of academic results.

EASA Part 147 Examination Completion Certificate:
In addition, successful graduates will receive the European Air Safety Authority (EASA) Examination Completion Certificate - a documentation that specifies the successfully completed theoretical modules from the EASA Part 147 examinations. These examinations are included (once each) in the course. This provides students with all the theoretical components required toward gaining their EASA Aircraft Maintenance Engineers Licence.

Australian Trade Recognition:
The Aviation Australia Diploma of Aircraft Maintenance Engineering (or Dual Diploma of Aircraft Maintenance Engineering) is registered by the Australian government as a 2 year programme. However, graduates are not automatically eligible for gtrade recognitionh within Australia. To gain trade recognition for migration or other purposes, graduates need to demonstrate that they have gained a minimum of 900 documented hours of paid work experience with a relevant employer ? inside or outside Australia.

Please note that paid or unpaid work experience is not included in the diploma courses and the requirements of the Australian Trade Recognition Authority are subject to regular review and adjustment.

Employment Opportunities:
To become a licensed aircraft maintenance engineer is a lengthy but highly rewarding process that requires dedication and perseverance. Aviation Australia graduates will qualify to work as an Aircraft Maintenance Engineer and will receive on-going support and advice in their endeavours to pursue a career as a Licenced Aircraft Maintenance Engineer. Eligibility for licensing is gained once a graduate has amounted 5 years of experience working as an Aircraft Maintenance Engineer.

Graduates who are able to gain employment directly with a suitable EASA Part 145 approved maintenance organisation may be able to undertake supervised on-job-training and receive an EASA Part 147 approved Certificate of Recognition. These graduates will then require only an additional 2 years of experience working as an Aircraft Maintenance Engineer before becoming eligible to apply for their EASA licence. Their work experience must cover all aspects of aircraft maintenance studied at Aviation Australia

Aviation Australia works with a number of industry partners both inside Australia and off-shore. If our partners have positions available for graduates, we may in some instances be able to assist our graduates by sponsorship on an Occupational Training Visa (subclass 442). This visa will allow up to 2 years of paid work experience. Positions however are very limited for this programme and are not guaranteed.

Aviation Australiafs career centre will assist students to whatever extent possible to gain introductions to potential employment opportunities, however, employment is entirely the graduates responsibility and global economic conditions, graduate numbers and immigration issues are strong influencing factors that should be carefully considered.
