The Aircraft Maintenance
The Aircraft Maintenance Engineers Technology program offers the student the knowledge and skills required to enter a career as an Aircraft Maintenance Technician. Once employed in the aviation industry, students may work toward the Aircraft Maintenance Engineer. An Aircraft Maintenance Technician/Engineer is responsible for the servicing and repair of aircraft and aircraft components. The program covers all the aspects of aircraft maintenance including general aviation, corporate, charter, transport category aircraft, and helicopters.
The Aircraft Maintenance Engineers Technology pStudents of these programs will learn about aircraft structures, aircraft electrical and engine systems and instrumentation. They will learn how to troubleshoot and repair problems within these systems as they prepare for careers as aviation technicians or mechanics. Courses in mathematics and physics will also be taken. Specializations focusing on certain systems or structures are offered in some programs, most often at the bachelor’s level. Graduates are prepared to pursue certifications in the field.rogram offers the student the knowledge and skills required to enter a career as an Aircraft Maintenance Technician.

Computer Engineering
Computer engineering is a discipline that integrates several fields of electrical engineering and computer science required to develop computer hardware and software. Computer engineers usually have training in electronic engineering (or electrical engineering), software design, and hardware- software integration instead of only software engineering or electronic engineering. Computer engineers are involved in many hardware and software aspects of computing, from the design of individual microcontrollers, microprocessors, personal computers, and supercomputers, to circuit design. This field of engineering not only focuses on how computer systems themselves work, but also how they integrate into the larger picture.
Usual tasks involving computer engineers include writing software and firmware for embedded microcontrollers, designing chips, analog sensors, mixed signal circuit boards, and operating systems. Computer engineers are also suited for robotics research, which relies heavily on using digital systems to control and monitor electrical systems like motors, communications, and sensors.
Avionics
Avionics, or aviation electronics, is a general term for all electrical equipment used in missiles, aircraft and spacecraft. Avionics encompasses components the pilot directly uses, such as navigation, weather radar, and radio communication equipment. In addition, avionics also comprises other electronic systems not directly used by the pilot that control and monitor flight and engine performance.
Course of Avionics aims to study aviation electronics together with navigation and instrumentation systems. Avionics degree programs prepare students for careers as avionics technicians, who install, maintain and repair an aircraft’s electrical components.
Students learn electrical theory, circuits, technical diagrams, industry regulations and electronic communications.Studies typically combine classroom instruction with simulated lab exercises wherein students receive hands-on training on aircraft instrumentation.
Aircraft and Rocket Construction and Design
Rocket scientists are aerospace engineers who specialize in the design and manufacture of spacecraft. They work with the principles of science and engineering to create vehicles that fly within or above the Earth’s atmosphere. The job of a rocket scientist requires proficiency with physics, chemistry, aerodynamics, propulsion, communications and mathematics. A bachelor’s degree in aerospace engineering or a related field is the minimum requirement for entry-level positions, while many candidates choose to pursue graduate degrees to enhance their career prospects.
Oil and Gass Engineering
This course aims to equip you with sector specific oil and gas engineering, technology and operational skills to succeed in this competitive environment.
The oil and gas industry is continuously developing and is therefore both recognised and expected to remain as a major contributor to the economy of many developed and developing regions as it continues to be driven not only by new oil and gas discoveries, but by a constant demand to find newer, safer, more efficient and cost- effective ways of extracting resources. Whilst exploration continues to identify major oil and gas finds across the world, these are increasingly less accessible and require complex engineering solutions to deliver effective operations and supply. Additionally, the significant and rising operating costs of existing installations are driving the sector to seek suitably qualified engineers are able to support operations and initiate improvements within the four main strands of oil and gas facilities: offshore, onshore, sub-sea and pipelines.
Telecommunication Systems and Network
The Bachelor of Engineering Science (Network Systems and Telecommunications) focuses on developing mastery of theoretical knowledge and practical skills related to network design, management and service provision of private and public network systems, wireless and broadband technologies, and the security and protection of networked and computer systems.
There is a particular focus on practical aspects of network design and deployment of develop a mastery of a range of networking technologies. The course is also strongly focused in aspects of network and computer security using both theoretical studies and practical examples. Aspects of the course cover the content of various professional certifications.
In addition to the specialist networking and security skills, this course is also focused on the development of research skills needed to assess the effectiveness of a networking technology or solution. The acquired skills and knowledge are consolidated in a major project in the final year.
This course provides graduates with knowledge and skills allowing them to undertake professional work at an advanced level in field of Information and Communication Technologies, and as a pathway for research and further learning.
Biomedical Engineering
Bioengineering or Biomedical Engineering (BME) is a discipline that advances knowledge in engineering, biology, and medicine – and improves human health through cross- disciplinary activities that integrate the engineering sciences with the biomedical sciences and clinical practice. Biomedical Engineering combines engineering expertise with medical needs for the enhancement of health care. It is a branch of engineering in which knowledge and skills are developed and applied to define and solve problems in biology and medicine. Those working within the bioengineering field are of service to people, work with living systems, and apply advanced technology to the complex problems of medical care.
Information security
This course focuses on the fundamentals of information security that are used in protecting both the information present in computer storage as well as information traveling over computer networks. Interest in information security has been spurred by the pervasive use of computer-based applications such as information systems, databases, and the Internet. Information security has also emerged as a national goal with national defense and homeland security implications. Information security is enabled through securing data, computers, and networks. In this course, we will look into such topics as fundamentals of information security, computer security technology and principles, access control mechanisms, cryptography algorithms, software security, physical security, and security management and risk assessment.
Nuclear Physics
Nuclear physics investigates the basic physical constituents of atomic nuclei. It attempts to understand the relationships between the particles that make up atoms, as well as their creation and decay. Nuclear physics not only continues to be a critical and vibrant branch of academic physical research, but has directly led to developments in medicine, national security and energy production. Nuclear physics knowledge is critical to applied science, as well, primarily in the field of nuclear engineering.
