Diploma holders in relevant fields of engineering, such as mechanical or electrical engineering, are eligible to apply for the B.Sc. in Aircraft Maintenance Engineering (AME) program. These candidates may receive certain exemptions or lateral entry into the second year of the program, depending on the institution’s policies. The diploma must be recognized by a state or central authority, and the applicant should have a strong background in subjects like physics and mathematics, as these are essential for the AME course. Diploma holders find this program particularly beneficial as it builds on their technical expertise and prepares them for specialized roles in aircraft maintenance.
