Study Aviation

The aviation industry is an incredibly exciting one that has witnessed exceptional growth in recent years, of about 12 percent per year worldwide. While the global economic crisis is currently affecting all industries, the aviation industry is expected to emerge strongly.

Aviation industry forecasts indicate that the demand for pilots will continue for the foreseeable future since air traffic growth is expected to continue to increase dramatically. Consequently, this projected industry growth provides great opportunities for both those currently involved in the industry and those wishing to become part of it. So, if you are thinking about studying aviation at Griffith, now is an ideal time to start!

Griffith Aviation has been offering programs in aviation for over two decades. We are recognised globally for our innovative approaches to education in this area. Our partnerships and links with the aviation industry continue to expand with new opportunities that arise regularly for our students, such as our unique partnerships with some of the world’s leading airlines. Our latest exciting partnership is with Cathay Pacific Airways and offers students pre-selection for a potential career as a pilot with Cathay Pacific.

At an appropriate point in your studies, you will have the opportunity to apply for an Advanced Entry Cadetship with Cathay Pacific and, if successful, once you have completed your studies and flight training, you will be based in Hong Kong as a pilot on one of the Cathay Pacific fleets of widebody jets. This breakthrough partnership ensures successful students can be pre-selected while they study and launch their international flying careers straight after graduating. This opportunity is just one of many career paths available through studying aviation at Griffith University.
