What is Building and Platform Engineering?
The Building Engineering and Platform study program is a study program that studies the techniques of maintenance, regulation and operation of land and air side facilities at the airport, as well as supervision of airport building construction or repair activities. The buildings and bases referred to here are airport buildings and runways. In this study program you will also learn theories in Civil Engineering that are applied to buildings and airport runways. Surely here we will also get knowledge about airlines and airport operating systems. This study program can be found in flight schools.
Why did you choose this programme?
The scope of the airport is very wide. Not just a passenger departure and arrival terminal, but also the air side which is a restricted area which cannot be accessed by just anyone, for example runway, taxi way, and apron, also ATC tower. If you have an interest in learning about airport buildings further, especially if you also like Civil Engineering, the Building Engineering and Platform study program can be one of your choices.
