Programme Structure
The Bachelor of Aviation (Pilot Training) is completed over 3 years of full-time study at Melbourne City and Point Cook, with February and July intakes. Expand each section for core subjects, the Professional Aviation major (including selectives), minors, technical options, and electives.
Core
The Bachelor of Aviation (Pilot Training) at RMIT University combines aviation theory with progressive flight training so you can work toward Recreational, Private, and Commercial Pilot Licences recognised for commercial flying within Australia. Core study builds industry foundations in human factors, analytics, airport and airline operations, safety and security, and aircraft maintenance management, then moves through RPL, PPL, and CPL theory and flying sequences. You also manage the air traffic environment and complete an Aviation Industry Project that applies classroom learning to a real operational challenge. Together these subjects prepare you for careers in the cockpit and in vital aviation operations and planning roles.

Professional Aviation
The Professional Aviation major deepens the Bachelor of Aviation (Pilot Training) with selective subjects that extend operational knowledge and advanced flying qualifications. You can tailor study toward air cargo, airport planning and design, global aviation strategy, incident investigation, unmanned aerial systems, instrument and instructor ratings, and Air Transport Pilot Licence theory. Selectives are chosen inside the formal course rules during enrolment planning rather than as a separate marketing list. Advisors help you sequence credit points and flight milestones so the major supports your February or July intake timeline and licence progression at Point Cook or Bendigo Airfield.

Minor
Alongside the Professional Aviation pathway you may complete a minor that builds complementary skills in engineering innovation and design, psychology, business analytics, supply chain analytics, or data insights. Minors sit inside the programme structure and are selected during enrolment planning with attention to credit points and prerequisites. They help you broaden employability beyond the flight deck into operations, planning, and analytical roles across airlines and airports. Confirm availability with an advisor so a minor supports rather than delays graduation from this three-year full-time degree.

Technical Option List
Technical option subjects let you tailor the Bachelor of Aviation (Pilot Training) toward professional experience, safety investigation, or unmanned aerial system operations. These options are selected within the programme structure when you plan later-year enrolments and sit inside the syllabus rather than as a separate majors panel. They suit students exploring operational, safety, or emerging technology pathways while keeping pilot training as the primary qualification. Confirm availability and prerequisites with an advisor before you lock in a February or July study plan at RMIT Melbourne City and Point Cook.
- Aviation Professional Experience
- Incident and Accident Investigation
- Unmanned Aerial System Operations
Elective
A university elective sits inside the Bachelor of Aviation (Pilot Training) structure so you can sample a subject beyond the aviation core, Professional Aviation major selectives, minor, and technical option lists while still meeting course rules. Electives are not listed as a separate marketing block on this page; they are chosen during subject planning with your advisor. Balance credit points, flight training milestones, and project timing so the elective strengthens rather than delays your path to graduation at RMIT.
