MSc Aviation Operations
Plan a disrupted day on a small airfield
Conferred under the Polish Law on Higher Education with European ECTS Diploma Supplement.
ApplyAcademic Overview
Turnaround, the movement area, passenger disruption, and safety reporting as a written process. This is not a pilot, controller, or engineer licence. Polish regional flying is the scale. The project is a disrupted-day plan. MSc Aviation Operations is taught as one award, not a list of unrelated modules. The published length is 18 months, and the credit total is 36. Students move from Turnaround through Turnaround; Movement area; Disruption; Safety reporting; Schedules; Disrupted day, and finish on Disrupted day. Each course has a question, a method, and a submission. In this field, students find where time or cost is lost and recommend one operational change. Reading is a process map, a capacity note, and a disruption case. The artefact a marker expects is a recommendation for one lane, site, or service with the cost and the risk. The award is built so that a graduate can do the following in practice: Time a turnaround Write a movement-area rule Plan passenger care in a three-hour delay Teaching assumes the student can read a source, attempt a problem before the seminar, and revise after feedback. Attendance at live seminars is part of the design. The capstone or final course must use the methods of the earlier courses; a project that ignores them does not pass. The pages for each course name the topics that are examined. Those topics are the syllabus. A brochure line is not a substitute for them.
The degree is awarded directly by IU International University of Applied Sciences, seated in Warsaw, Poland. Studies are conducted in full alignment with Polish and European academic standards.
