INSTITUTE OF AERONAUTICS AND SPACE STUDIES

Aircraft Propulsion License

Formation's goal

Career opportunities

Aeronautics is nowadays an essential sector for the sustainable development of a country like Algeria. The latter and for more than twenty years, has invested in training for the sectors of aeronautical technology, through the Institute of Aeronautics, the University of Blida, currently "Institute of Aeronautics and space studies”.

The purpose of the proposed aeronautical structures license is to train specialists who master the motorization of the various flying structures, the operating conditions of these engines, their operation and maintenance.

This course brings together through three years of teaching, the scientific and technical bases necessary for the integration of graduates in the maintenance of the aeronautical field both in Algeria and abroad. It will be able to meet the needs of the aeronautical sector in the field of aeronautical construction and maintenance in Algeria

The licensees thus trained will have an in-depth knowledge of aeronautical engines, and also of the preliminary design aspect. They will be able to check and maintain the motors and their circuits. The skills conferred are as follows

  • Aeronautical Maintenance
  • Technical office
  • Operational Support
  • Technical framework for upkeep, maintenance, new works
  • Deep knowledge in design.
  • Design, forecasting and analysis of the life cycle of an aeronautical engine.
  • Knowledge of the state of the art in this specialized field and its main technologies.
  • Ability to conduct a scientific study on a subject related to this field.

The employability of aircraft propulsion licensees is achieved both abroad and in Algeria. Some licensees are recruited from Airbus industrie, others are from the Canadian manufacturer Bombardier. At local level, aircraft propulsion licensees are taken from Air Algérie, Tassili Airlines, the air force command, technical control bodies, the Cheraga welding center, civil protection from the General Directorate of National Safety. In 2014, the institute established an agreement between the national office of meteorology and the company Tassili Airlines. Among the essential points of the agreements was the management of student internships. The institute also created a consortium in 2014 with all the partners of the aeronautical activity in Algeria.
