The Air Transport Management MSc degree has been designed as a unique course that utilises the academic strength of Coventry University in aerospace and engineering management. This course is partly delivered by industry experts and a key feature is very strong industry links developed through a programme of industry site visits. The teaching on the programme is structured to enable part-time students to fit their studies around their professional careers.

The award is seeking professional accreditation through the Chartered Institute of Logistics and Transport (CILT) and has recognition from the industry through its Industry Advisory Board. The programme is designed to develop strategic managerial skills necessary to meet the challenges currently facing the aviation industry today. As such it is an ideal route for professionals already working in the aviation industry who wish to broaden their skills. It is also relevant to graduates of other disciplines who are keen to develop their understanding of business and management within a complex environment which will allow entry to careers within the aviation industry.
