The Air Traffic Control program offers a Bachelor of Engineering in Aeronautics and prepares students for professional ATC roles.

The Air Traffic Control program prepares students for professional roles within the civil aviation system, focusing on the safe and efficient management of air traffic in controlled airspace. The program combines theoretical aeronautical education with specialised practical training to develop competencies required for communication, coordination, surveillance, and navigation guidance in civilian air traffic environments.

About The Program

Students gain hands-on experience through simulator-based training that replicates real-time tower, approach, and area control environments. This blend of theoretical knowledge and practical application ensures that graduates are well-prepared for further licensing and professional development within civil air traffic control.

Students also develop essential soft skills such as decision-making under pressure, situational awareness, teamwork, and clear radio communication, all of which are critical for maintaining safety in complex air traffic scenarios. Throughout the program, emphasis is placed on understanding modern ATM technologies and international standards (ICAO, EASA), ensuring that graduates are fully aligned with the operational requirements of contemporary civil aviation.
