DIPLOMA IN AERONAUTICAL ENGINEERING (S88)
FUTURE CAREER AND STUDIES
I can begin my career
The global aerospace industry is set to grow in the coming decades and multiple multi-national companies such as Rolls-Royce, Bombardier Aerospace Services Singapore, Bell Helicopter and Cessna Aircraft have already set up facilities in Seletar Aerospace
Park. There will be strong demand for DARE graduates to fill the following roles:
- Aeronautical Engineering Technologist
- Assistant Aeronautical Design and System Engineer
