​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​If you’re fascinated by flight, technology​ and how things move through the sky, aerospace systems could be your perfect launchpad. Whether you are interested in aircraft, drones, or the mechanics behind aviation, studying aerospace can lead to exciting and high-tech careers.

There are many pathways to explore in the world of aerospace:

  • Aircraft maintenance engineering—keeping aircraft operating safely and efficiently
  • Remote piloting—operating drones for everything from photography and surveying to search and rescue
  • Aviation operations—managing the complex systems that keep air travel running smoothly

Aerospace education in Queensland Government schools gives students hands-on experience and strong foundational knowledge, preparing them for further study such as the Bachelor of Aviation at CQUniversity. Along the way, students develop essential technical and analytical skills that are in demand across the aviation industry.

A strong background in mathematics and physics is recommended for students interested in this field, as well as a keen interest in how things fly and function.
