DESCRIPTION

The aim of this module is to introduce students to a range of topics that will act as a foundation for a more detailed treatment of aviation-related issues in other modules. The module will introduce the history of the origins of the global industry that is the airline system and the general aviation sector. It will cover topics in mathematics that are essential for aviation, but would not normally be covered in a module on business mathematics. It will include elements of physics and chemistry that underpin systems and concepts in aviation. It with introduce aspects of human physiology and cognitive science that underpin an understanding of the multifaceted role of the human in aviation. Finally, it will introduce students to library and research skills that underpin an ability to become independent learners.
