From 2009 Swinburne's Higher Education Aviation programs will all have new course titles to reflect that they will now be conferred under the Aviation discipline. Previously they had been conferred under the Technology discipline. In recognition of the growing importance of Aviation as a discipline in it's own right, and the importance of tertiary education in the Aviation Industry sector, Swinburne University of Technology has amended it's Regulations to now include Aviation as a discipline. Existing students may continue in their current Technology programs or elect to transfer to the equivalent Aviation program.
From 2009 students undertaking the Bachelor of Aviation or Bachelor of Aviation / Bachelor of Business programs will be able to concurrently undertake flying training by enrolling in the newly accredited Graduate Certificate of Aviation (Piloting). Undertaking the optional full fee Graduate Certificate of Aviation (Piloting) will enable eligible students to access Commonwealth assistance for the flying training.
