Introduction to Advanced Air Mobility

Overview

Advanced Air Mobility (AAM) refers to the next generation of air transportation systems. It uses innovative aircraft including electric vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL) vehicles, drones, autonomous aircraft and other emerging aviation technologies to move people and cargo more efficiently and sustainably.

AAM aims to improve both urban and regional transport by integrating these aircraft into existing infrastructure. It offers the potential to reduce emissions, shorten travel times, ease congestion and improve access to locations that are difficult to reach by traditional transport modes.

This one-day course, delivered by Swinburne’s Aerostructures Innovation Research (AIR) Hub, introduces the key concepts, technologies and real-world applications of AAM, with a strong focus on the Australian context. Drawing on AIR Hub’s research and industry expertise, you will explore how AAM could shape transport, emergency response, regional access and industry development — without needing an aviation or engineering background.

Who should attend

Professionals and students looking to explore the exciting world of AAM, upskill and improve their knowledge, pivot into a future-focused industry, understand various career paths, and uncover investment and partnership opportunities.
