Description

This program is designed to address the lighting systems and their functionality as a means of information to aircraft”

##IMAGE##

This postgraduate certificate is designed to develop the content on visual aids on the air side and non-visual aids on the airfield. It deals with the lighting systems, describing their connection to the runway, taxiways or apron, indicating their geometrical and luminous configuration and their usefulness. But also, how they are in themselves a communication system for aircraft pilots. 

Likewise, this program deals, in several lessons, with the definition of the airfield paintings or horizontal signaling and to understand how they are intended to assist the pilot in flight, during taxiing, takeoff or landing. The content delves into the types of signs that can be placed on the airfield, their location requirements and their meanings, as well as which ones are mandatory and which ones are informational.

Postgraduate Certificate in Airport Signage and Lighting

The Postgraduate Certificate in Airport Signage and Lighting is a program that is booming due to the importance of visual and non-visual aid systems in the field of aviation. TECH offers the opportunity to those interested to be trained in this subject, deepening in the systems of lights, paints and signs that are used in airports, so that professionals can develop their work with knowledge and safety. Correct signage and lighting at airports is crucial to ensure the safety of air operations and passengers. Pilots depend on these systems to orient themselves in the airfield and make crucial decisions, so it is important that the professionals in charge of their design and maintenance are highly trained. During the Postgraduate Certificate in Airport Signage and Lighting, students will learn about the geometric and luminous configuration of lighting systems, as well as their usefulness in different areas of the airport. They will also learn about horizontal signaling, signs and their location on the airfield. All this with the aim of enabling professionals to develop and maintain signage and lighting systems that meet the required quality and safety standards.

Specialize in airport infrastructures

In addition, the program includes an analysis of the lighting needs of the apron and the different lighting configurations that can be established to achieve moderate energy consumption. Finally, the main radio aids and their importance in air navigation are addressed. In short, the Postgraduate Certificate in Airport Signage and Lighting is a complete and highly specialized education that will allow professionals to be at the forefront in their field of work and contribute to aviation safety.
