Avionic Systems With Year In Industry Beng (hons) in University of Liverpool

What stops an aircraft from falling out of the sky? The fundamental reason is due to the aerodynamic lift acting on the wings but, for modern aircraft, sophisticated electronics is another essential ingredient.

Electronic systems associated with flight are known by the term ‘avionics’. Avionics covers the internal sensors and control systems within an aircraft; from airborne communication and navigation systems to ‘stealth’ aircraft design and flight control systems.

The avionics in most aircraft will be upgraded several times during the life of the airframe. This makes avionics one of the most important sectors in the aerospace industry and it is a major employer in the UK.

This degree programme aims to prepare you to work in a variety of related disciplines: radar systems, GPS/inertial navigation systems, guidance and control, and avionics systems design.

We have strong links with industry and a number of undergraduate projects have been generated from industrial projects undertaken by members of the Department. Examples include the development of infrared tracking algorithms for missile warning systems, antenna design for airborne communications and flight control systems for terrain avoidance in low-level flight.

Our Avionics programmes give you the option to learn to fly and to build towards either a National Private Pilot’s Licence (NPPL) or a full Joint Aviation Authorities/Private Pilot Licence (JAA/ PPL) in the first year and the ‘frozen’ Air Transport Pilot’s Licence (fATPL) in the second year. If you are seeking a career as a commercial airline pilot it is possible to work towards the fATPL.

Our flight training partners are based at Liverpool John Lennon Airport and time for flight training is provided in your timetable. Also, a particularly exciting experimental facility on the University campus is the Bibby Flight Simulation Laboratory featuring motion and visual cueing and a library of different aircraft types that students can ‘try their hands on’. A new two-seat motion simulator is used as support to our Pilot Studies programmes.

An additional fee of approximately £3,400 is required to cover the costs of the mandatory 20 hours pilot training that is required for all students who choose the Pilot Studies pathway and work towards the NPPL, JAA/PPL and fATPL
