    Course Summary

    Cardiff Metropolitan University’s BA in Aviation Management is not just an aviation qualification. It will allow you to explore all aspects of the commercial aviation industry, including Airport Operations Management, Aviation Strategic Management, Aviation law and a wide range of Human and HR issues unique to the Aviation industry generally. You’ll also learn the kind of industry-specific leadership skills you’ll need to attain a responsible position in aviation.

    You’ll have the option to study at full time or at part time around work or other commitments. Its purpose is to help supply the aviation industry both in the UK and abroad with the skilled management professionals it needs, and to help its students to find the rewarding, challenging careers they need to thrive in life. You’ll learn the skills and theoretical perspectives you’ll need to add value to nearly any company in the aviation industry, from the largest employers to your own start-up or SME.

Many employers actively seek candidates with these benefits. Our network of contacts, a dedicated employability service and a reputation in the legal profession mean we also have an outstanding track-record of finding students legal employment.Many employers favour GDL students in an increasingly competitive legal job market.
