Starting April, 21, 2026, Airbus employees will give the new course "Airworthiness and Certification". The course is for master students of University of Stuttgart and TU-Delft. However, if you are interested, feel free to join. Airbus developed the course material themselves. It will give a very broad and useful introduction of what it means to certify and legally operate an aircraft, including:
- Fundamentals of airworthiness and certification
- Safety principles and risk management
- Global aviation regulations and authorities
- Certification processes for aircraft and operations
- Organizational approvals (e.g., AOC, DOA)
- Maintenance of airworthiness throughout the entire lifecycle of an aircraft
For more information, see the images below.
Developed directly by Airbus, this course combines academic learning with practical industry knowledge and provides valuable insights for anyone interested in aviation engineering, safety, and regulatory processes.
