‘Welcome aboard the Aviation Academy’ The Aviation Academy is part of the Amsterdam University of Applied Sciences (AUAS). The Aviation Academy is the aggregate of our education, applied research and continuous cooperation with industry partners. Our focus is to enable the professional on the work floor to excel in their jobs and tasks. The operational process is key, whether you work for an airline, handler, airport, ATC or government organisation. Our education and research covers the operational readiness of the aircraft (the aircraft as a technical entity) as well as how the aircraft is used to transport people and goods from A to B including the infrastructure needs. Each student understands the interrelationship between engineering, operations, business model and regulations. The industry is an integral partner in our activities, both in developing our curriculum, providing lectures and internships as well in our applied research.

We perform practical scientific research related to real-life cases and problems in the industry, focusing on safety & human factors, MRO process improvement, composites and aviation capacity. Our goal is to improve and innovate professional practice. We perform all of our research projects in close cooperation with industry, governmental agencies, scientific institutions and other universities. This ensures a solid connection with state-of-the-art scientific knowledge, as well as a focus on the most urgent and current problems and challenges on the shop floor.
