MSc Luftverkehrsmanagement

The global aviation industry is highly complex and is subject to constant change and challenge in sustaining competitiveness while offering a safe and efficient passenger experience. Now, more than ever, aviation needs effective and highly capable management and leadership.

Buckinghamshire New University was the first UK institution to deliver Aviation Management programmes and in 2020 we celebrate two decades of sector-leading programmes. We have extensive knowledge and capability in the areas that matter in the sector now and in the future, including globalisation, market growth and organisational resilience.

Aviation continues to develop and grow in response to economic, environmental and market needs. In the face of technological advances, challenge and disruption alongside that growth, there is strong demand for capable managers who possess high-level knowledge and analytical thinking skills who are equipped and able to take businesses and their employees forward. This programme is for those who wish to make that difference.

This course is suited to those who are either interested in moving into the airline industry, for example, you may be a recent graduate with a degree from a related programme or may have general management experience. Additionally, you may already be in the aviation sector, working for an airline or are an airport employee or commercial pilot, who wishes to broaden your industry knowledge base and management and analytical skills with a view to enhancing your career prospects.

Our collaboration with ICAO and the CAA, ACI Europe, and our wide network of associate contributors will provide you with the opportunity to get the unique insights and currency that you’ll need to be able to contribute to highly effective Aviation Operation Management.
