Key Summary
Air traffic control personnel, flight crew members, flight operations specialists and technical representatives within the aviation and aerospace industry require a technical skill set. Whether you already work in one of these roles or aspire to, a Master of Science in Aeronautics (MSA) may help you reach your goals.
Offered by Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University, the 30 credit-hour Aeronautics master's degree program zeros in on technical, operations and safety-oriented aspects of aviation. As some modules are highly technical, some prior background in aviation would be helpful.
Already Embry-Riddle’s largest graduate program in the United States, this program is an exciting addition to the Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University offerings in Singapore as it will give students the chance to be prepared for senior-level positions and critical leadership roles demanded in Singapore’s thriving aviation and aerospace industry.
Students joining the January 2022 batch of the Master of Science in Aeronautics are eligible for an inaugural batch scholarship of SGD 15,000 as well as an additional scholarship of up to SGD 5,000 that is based on academic merit and demonstrated financial need. That’s a total of up to SGD 20,000 in financial assistance for students starting in our first batch.
Applications for the January 2022 intake are opened to applicants who are currently residing in Singapore.

However, ERAU Asia Institute may decide to start a course with less than the minimum on a cohort-by-cohort basis.

Students will be notified at least 30 days before the intended commencement of any course if the minimum number has not been reached. ERAU Asia Institute will refund any tuition/fees should a course not commence because the minimum number of students was not reached. No industrial attachment is required to fulfill the degree requirements of the Master of Science in Aeronautics.
