Entrance Exam Description
During the selection process we examine the competency of the applicant in two ways:
The faculty decides about the eligibility of the applicant by examining the documents of previous studies (degree, subject, results). This is followed by an entrance exams that evaluate the level of study-language and basic subjects depends on speciality.
The exams can be conducted online. In order to validate the entrant’s person, exams taken remotely are recorded on video, as is the person verification process. The recording is archived for at least five years on University’s grounds and the link to that recording is available in the united base of Ministry of Education of Ukraine.
Program Structure
Year 1 – Foundation in Aviation & Engineering Basics
Students begin by learning the essential scientific and engineering fundamentals needed for future aviation courses. This year builds a strong base and introduces the world of aircraft and modern aviation technologies.
Typical subjects: Higher Mathematics, Physics & Engineering Mechanics, Introduction to Aviation and Aircraft Operation, Technical Drawing & CAD Basics, Materials Science, Electrical Engineering Fundamentals, Computer Technologies and Programming, Ukrainian / English for Professional Communication, Safety and Environmental Studies.
Students learn how machines work, how aircraft are built, and how engineers think. They start practicing with engineering drawings, tools, and basic design software while discovering the fundamentals of aviation.
Year 2 – Understanding Aircraft & Engine Systems
This year focuses on aircraft structures, powerplants, and the principles behind their operation. Students explore how each system works and how engineers keep them safe.
Typical subjects: Aircraft Structures and Systems, Aerodynamics & Flight Principles, Gas-Turbine Engine Fundamentals, Electronics and Avionics Basics, Hydraulics and Pneumatics in Aircraft, Strength of Materials, Automatic Control Basics, Metrology and Measurement Techniques, Applied Mechanics.
Students begin to “see inside” the aircraft—learning how wings carry loads, how engines generate thrust, and how systems like hydraulics, avionics, and fuel systems work. They also start gaining practical skills for diagnostics and technical analysis.
Year 3 – Maintenance, Diagnostics & Aviation Technologies
This year brings real aviation practice. Students learn how aircraft and engines are inspected, maintained, tested, and repaired according to international safety standards.
Typical subjects: Aircraft Maintenance Technologies, Engine Maintenance & Repair Methods, Diagnostics of Aircraft Systems, Aviation Fuel & Lubricants, NDT – Non-Destructive Testing (ultrasound, X-ray, magnetic testing), Reliability & Safety of Aircraft, Automatic Engine Control Systems, Aviation Legislation & Certification.
Students work with real aircraft components and learn how to detect faults, carry out inspections, and perform maintenance procedures. They understand aviation safety rules and train with advanced diagnostic equipment—just like real engineers in airlines.
Year 4 – Professional Practice & Modern Aviation Engineering
The final year prepares students for the labor market with advanced practical training and specialization in aircraft or engine maintenance.
Typical subjects: Modern Aircraft Systems and Technologies, Engine Performance & Modernization, Maintenance Planning & Quality Management, Airworthiness and Technical Operation, Aircraft Repair Technologies, Internship in Airlines / Maintenance Organizations (MRO), Bachelor Thesis.
Students apply all their knowledge during real practical training in aviation companies and maintenance centers. They learn to plan maintenance, evaluate airworthiness, and ensure full technical safety of aircraft and engines. By graduation, they are ready to work in global aviation.
Overview
The program teaches students how modern aircraft and engines work, how they are inspected, and how they are kept safe and ready for flight. It combines exciting engineering knowledge with practical training in real aviation laboratories and maintenance hangars. Students learn everything from aircraft structures and engine systems to diagnostics, repairs, and international aviation safety standards.
This program is perfect for students who want a hands-on technical career and dream of working directly with aircraft.
Career Opportunities
Graduates are ready to work in airlines, airports, maintenance organizations, aviation repair bases, and aerospace companies. They can become aircraft maintenance engineers, engine technicians, system diagnostic specialists, and technical safety experts. Students gain strong international skills, confidence with aircraft systems, and practical experience that is highly valued in global aviation.
