The Applied Aircraft Engineering Undergraduate Study Program organizes the D IV Aircraft Engineering program in accordance with the approval of the Directorate General of Higher Education No. 2327/D/T/1999 dated 10 September 1999 regarding approval for the opening of Diploma IV programs at STPI Curug. Since then, TPU’s D IV Applied Bachelor program has been implemented with a dynamic curriculum with a main concentration on Airframe and Powerplant competencies. In line with the implementation of the D IV program, the Bachelor of Applied Aircraft Engineering Study Program in 2000 also received approval as an Approved Aircraft Maintenance Training Organization (AMTO) from the Directorate General of Civil Aviation, Ministry of Transportation with approval number AMTO 147/0300 because it has fulfilled the requirements of CASR Part 147 Thus, graduates of the Bachelor of Applied Aircraft Engineering study program, apart from getting an Applied Bachelor’s academic degree, also get the opportunity to take a test to have a Basic Certificate Preparation (Basic License) as a requirement to be able to work as an aircraft maintenance technician. To improve the quality of graduates who have international standard technician license certification (EASA), in 2013 – 2018 PS Bachelor of Applied Aircraft Engineering in collaboration with Air Service Training (AST UK – CAA) Perth, Scottland managed the EASA Second site Program where the Study Program could Organizing training and exams for cadets to obtain EASA recognition certificates under the supervision of AST UK. Then in 2019 – 2022 the Bachelor of Applied Aircraft Engineering Study Program will prepare steps to obtain direct recognition (Direct Approval) as an EASA 147 Approved Training Organization. Submission to this program will be carried out in September 2022 after all requirements are declared to meet the registration requirements.
