Master’s Degree (Engineering)
Graduates of the Air Transport Management program are qualified and competent university-level professionals for the organization, management, and control of air traffic, the operation of airports and their facilities, and for providing logistical support to processes related to the production, operation, and maintenance of aircraft, as well as processes associated with air traffic control and airport operations. They are also prepared for air transport planning, economic and commercial activities of authorities and organizations that operate, manage, and supervise air transport, and for specialized aviation tasks both domestically and internationally.
Students will be able to address selected challenges in air transport management with a focus on airline management and marketing, economic aspects of airlines, the organization of activities and logistics in air transport, aviation safety, aviation security, and information systems in air transport management.
Graduates have knowledge of modern transport technologies, command management methods, and modern information technologies necessary for managing transport systems. They are able to independently and creatively solve complex air transport problems using modern decision-support tools and optimize the operation of air transport systems and their components.
Currently, graduates can find employment in aviation, transport, the military, and industry. They are capable of applying advanced methods and techniques for the design and development of transport systems.
Students have the option to choose between two specializations, i.e., two study trajectories.
Specialization in Avionics Systems: This track focuses on the study of aerospace electronics, instruments and instrument systems, cybernetic systems, electrical systems, radionavigation systems, radiotechnical systems, radar systems, radio communication and onboard information systems, as well as data processing and transmission systems.
Specialization in Aircraft Operation and Design: This track is focused on aerospace engineering in the areas of airframe and engine theory and design, ground technical and operational support, and airport operations and flight support.
Graduates of the Master’s program in Aerospace Engineering, within the field of Transport, have thorough knowledge of modern technical means in aerospace engineering, understand the principles of their operation, and are familiar with the conditions for their safe operation and maintenance in professional practice.
They possess knowledge of aerospace propulsion, airframe, and avionics systems in the context of understanding the objectives of flying vehicles. Graduates are also capable of evaluating the functionality of technical and computer-supported systems in the context of aerospace equipment, other production operations, maintenance facilities, and specialized laboratories, while being able to communicate professionally with flight personnel. They can participate in investigating the causes of accidents and incidents and propose measures to prevent similar events.
Based on their knowledge of information systems, graduates can competently utilize them at both local and international levels, or contribute to their development for the needs of specific aerospace operators, production or maintenance facilities.
Upon completing the Master’s program, graduates also possess appropriate managerial skills oriented toward technical management in aerospace services, the production of tools, and quality utilization of information technologies. They are capable of performing conceptual and coordination tasks even in international professional contexts. Graduates approach problem-solving creatively, applying interdisciplinary solutions based on systems engineering principles.
They can independently analyze and design theoretical and practical maintenance procedures using technical and computer-supported tools for assigned tasks in aerospace technology, equipment, production processes, and other aerospace systems.
Based on the cross-disciplinary knowledge acquired, graduates can independently work in the development and implementation of new hardware and software products for applications in aviation or space practice, as well as in the creation of new information systems in this field.
