B.Sc. Aeronautical Science graduates have the foundational knowledge that can benefit their training to become pilots. However, to fly commercially, they must undergo additional flight training at a recognized flight school and obtain the required licenses, such as a Private Pilot License (PPL) and a Commercial Pilot License (CPL).
The knowledge gained during the B.Sc. program, particularly in subjects like aerodynamics, flight mechanics, and aviation regulations, can significantly enhance their understanding of flight operations. Additionally, some universities and colleges offer integrated pilot training programs that allow students to earn both their degree and pilot qualifications simultaneously, streamlining the path to becoming a commercial pilot.
