B.Sc Aviation Teaching Methodology and Technique

Aviation industry professionals need to be aware of the functioning and working of various instruments and technologies used in an aircraft. It is not logistically possible to always teach the students with the help of a real aircraft, so institutes use various animations and simulations and real-life video footage of aircraft to make the teaching and learning process more efficient. Here is a list of some of the most popular teaching methodologies adopted by the institutes for teaching:

• Video Demonstration
• Computer Simulations
• Animations
• Field Visit 
• Co-curricular Activities

B.Sc Aviation Projects

Aviation students have to compulsory work on 3-4 projects in their final year and complete them under the mentorship of their respective faculty members. The projects are given to test students' knowledge of in-flight safety, navigation planning, and security. Here are some project topics:

•  Aviation Medicine & First Aid
•  Airline Route Planning
•  Flight Safety
•  Air Traffic Control & Management
•  Fuel Economy
•  Aircrew Survival over Sea and Land
•  Future Air Navigation Systems
•  Airline Operations and Scheduling
•  CRM & Human Factors
