Rapidly changing technologies are involved in aerospace, avionics and related engineering sectors. There are significant opportunities at technician level for those with a grounding in the principles and practices of this diverse and internationally competitive industry. Students completing the BTEC Level 3 National Certificate and Diploma in Aerospace Engineering can go on to work at technician level in aerospace engineering, or to further study (a university degree or Foundation Degree or BTEC Higher National qualifications).

The BTEC Nationals in Aerospace Engineering were replaced by the QCF-accredited BTEC Level 3 Diploma and Extended Diploma in Aeronautical Engineering from September 2010. Find out more
