The programme firstly provides an opportunity for advancement to those already in the airline industry as commercial pilots, who wish to broaden their industry knowledge base and management and analytical skills with a view to enhancing their career prospects. Secondly, graduates of the Foundation Degree in Air Transport Management with Airline Pilot Training, offered in conjunction with our partners Oxford Aviation Academy, will benefit by upgrading their qualification in preparation for a career as a commercial pilot. This top-up programme is thus designed to meet the needs of students who either are already following or wish to follow a career in the airline industry, initially as commercial airline pilots but with the medium-term objective of being eligible for progression into airline management roles. Potential students will, therefore, wish to enhance their employability by demonstrating leadership and management potential and a wider knowledge of the airline business than is immediately necessary for a pilot. Why should students choose this award? Modules studied for the BA (Hons) Air Transport with Commercial Pilot Training degree topup aim to reflect the changes inherent in the dynamic aviation industry. Buckinghamshire New University has historically been the leader in the field of aviation degrees with pilot training and this top-up programme remains at the cutting edge of provision in the sector. The award BA (Hons) Air Transport with Commercial Pilot Training (Top up) Page 1 of 7

2 offers students a programme of study that accommodates their particular needs and work programmes by offering the top-up to the BA (Hons) degree programme via Flexible and Distributed Learning (FDL). This facilitates study by students who are employed full-time whilst seeking employment in the aviation sector or who work irregular hours as commercial pilots and would not be able to attend university-based classes. Students who successfully complete all the academic modules on the course will be awarded the BA (Hons) Air Transport with Commercial Pilot Training degree. All modules are delivered by expert lecturers, many of whom have direct airline management experience. This programme allows commercial pilots to obtain direct access to L6 of an honours degree programme. Opportunities available for students after completion of the Award On successful completion of this award, students will find their employment and promotion prospects enhanced. Commercial pilots will have gained the requisite knowledge and skills to enable them to realistically aspire to management roles in airlines; while graduates who are not yet employed as commercial pilots are more likely to be able to obtain airline employment. All graduates will have developed transferable skills that can be used in a wide range of employment roles. Expected Knowledge and Skills Applicants who are in employment as commercial pilots may qualify for entry without holding prior higher education academic qualifications. Entrants to the programme who hold either a frozen ATPL plus a minimum of 2 years experience in the aviation industry or the Buckinghamshire New University Foundation Degree in Air Transport Management with Airline Pilot Training will be considered suitable for entrance to L6 of the BA (Hons) Air Transport with Commercial Pilot Training degree. Applicants without the Buckinghamshire New University Foundation Degree in Air Transport Management with Airline Pilot Training will be required to provide evidence of having successfully completed their frozen ATPL in addition to a letter of reference from their current employer confirming the candidate s length of experience in the air transport industry. Applicants who hold the Buckinghamshire New University Foundation Degree in Air Transport Management with Airline Pilot Training will be required to provide a transcript of their results.

Table 1: Programme Skills Matrix Assessment Module Code Information Acquisition Critical thinking, analysis and synthesis Self-reflection and Criticality Communication Skills: Oral Communication Skills: Written Information & Communications Technology (ICT) Numeracy & Quantitative Skills Problem Solving & Decision Making Independent & Self-managed Learning Working with Others TA654 TA660 Learning, Teaching and Assessment Methods to achieve the Programme Learning Outcomes At level 6 students are expected to become more independent learners. At this strategic level students should be able to demonstrate the ability to critically review and analyse theories, concepts, assumptions and arguments and to synthesise and evaluate information from a wide variety of sources in relation to the aviation industry. The diverse assessment strategy combines: case studies; contributions to a group wiki; essays; reports; the compilation of a portfolio; a research project; and the opportunity for selfassessment and reflection. The assessment regime is designed to test students ability to identify, analyse, critically evaluate and reflect on management issues and challenges with which the aviation industry is confronted. The Research Project requires students to produce a major piece of written work based on their research of a relevant topic of their choice. Submission, marking and feedback on student assignments is facilitated electronically. Students, who require guidance in relation to academic writing and the preparation of assignments, will have access to the materials developed by, and support from, the Learning Development Unit (LDU) and electronically to the services of tutors within the LDU. Students will also have opportunity for ongoing interaction, via blogs and the discussion board, with the Course Leader and module tutors. Learning at Level 6 is structured to ensure that students are engaged in subject-specific contexts. Students are afforded the opportunity to interact with and research diverse aspects of the aviation industry by virtue of fieldwork and the completion of their research project. Modules enable students to develop key skills which are aligned with both QAA and QCA. Programme outcomes are mapped against QAA hospitality, leisure, sport and tourism subject benchmarks whilst the modes and scope of assessment have been formulated with reference to the learning outcomes for each module.

5 Students enrolled on this programme study by Flexible and Distributed Learning. Students may complete this top-up programme over a period of up to two years. This facility is available to enable students, who are working as airline pilots, flexibility in completing the top-up to Honours degree whilst simultaneously undertaking a demanding flight schedule. Students receive study materials by means of Webex, podcasts, vodcasts and other appropriate VLE tools and interact with their tutors on-line through the use of discussion boards, blogs and wikis. Resources and activities in the modules will be made available via the VLE; these may include references to papers, case study analysis, debates and/or discussions on relevant themes and contemporary issues in relation to the global aviation industry. Students are also introduced to directed reading, including relevant websites and journal articles that will enable them to apply the concepts covered to the aviation industry. Students are encouraged to use the Discussion Board feature to discuss issues raised in lectures, case studies and directed reading and are expected to contribute their ideas using the online forum, the discussion being facilitated and guided by the module tutor. Use of the VLE further allows students to develop and demonstrate competence in the area of information technology. Support for the planning, implementation and presentation of the research project is provided through on-line action learning sets conducted via Blackboard through the use of discussion groups, blogs and, where appropriate, videoconferencing. In the action learning sets participants work within a small, mutually supportive group facilitated by a member of the programme team. Students are allocated a project supervisor, appropriate to the research topic selected, who advises and supports students in the completion of the research project. The Course Leader functions as personal tutor to students enrolled on the programme. A review of students progress is undertaken after each module in order to monitor progress, identify incipient problems and, where necessary, take remedial action.
