INSTITUTE OF AERONAUTICS AND SPACE STUDIES

Master in Aircraft Propulsion

Formation's goal

Career opportunities

Employability is the driving force behind the opening of training and represents the main indicator of the success of the training project. As such, the following points must be clarified: sectors of employability of graduates at national and international level, agreements signed with the socio-economic sector,
internship opportunities in user sectors.
The Aircraft Propulsion master aims to train executives capable of occupying key positions in the aeronautical and space industry sectors, maintenance centers, aeronautical safety organizations, specialized design offices and certification bodies and of approval (national and international). At the national level, the sectors targeted are:
– The national company AIR ALGERIA,
– Tassili Airlines,
– Air Express Algeria,
– Star Aviation (Algeria),
– VERITAL (national aeronautical inspection body),
– Directorate of Civil Aviation and Meteorology (DACM)
– Air Force Command
– The national police (with a fleet of helicopters),
– Civil protection (with a fleet of helicopters),
This course also predisposes trained masters to doctoral research studies.

Students graduating from this MASTER can apply for engineering jobs in companies or move towards teaching and scientific research and technological.
As they can continue their studies to prepare a Doctorate degree in Telecommunications, existing training in the Department of Electrical Engineering and Electronics.

  • Acquisition and mastery of different methods of satellite and space technologies, in the field of propulsion structures
  • Mastery of different theories, related to different fluid regimes, type of space propulsion, design of space propulsion structures.

At the end of this training, the student will have an excellent command of space propulsion, which will allow him to integrate easily into a professional activity; Thus the possibility of continuing academic research in doctorate.
