Once you graduate, you’ll need just two years’ maintenance experience before applying to the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) for your B Licence (the main license for aircraft maintenance staff).
- The course covers all the knowledge requirements specified in the EASA category B1.1 aircraft maintenance engineering license syllabus (Part 66).
- This degree is accredited by the Royal Aeronautical Society (RAeS) as meeting the requirements for IEng registration with the Engineering Council.
**About this course**
Do you have an engineering foundation degree from Kingston University? Or, do you hold an EASA Cat B aircraft engineering license? If so, this course is a perfect choice to top-up your qualification to an honours degree.
Your studies will include exploring the performance of fixed-wing and rotary-wing aircraft and analysis of their structures, and evaluating materials for aircraft
applications.
You’ll also study the principles of air transport economics and how they affect management decision-making and project planning and mapping. You’ll also undertake group and individual projects on industry-related topics.

Assessment includes assignments, reports, presentations and formal written examinations. The Aircraft Maintenance Operations module (which contains a significant group project element) and Individual Project module are assessed by coursework only.
If you are a direct entrant student who has no previous experience of higher education (HE) in the UK then the style of the delivery and learning on this course may be rather alien to you. This will be especially so if the only learning you have completed since leaving school has been through vocational training courses. Those who have progressed from a Kingston University foundation degree will have had some experience of HE but the delivery style of the top-up and what is expected of you in terms of learning is quite different to what you will have experienced on the foundation degree; the foundation degree is actually delivered very much like a vocational training course.
