Over the past twenty years, SETU Carlow has actively cultivated Aerospace programs, drawing students from more than 27 nations. The three-year BSc in Pilot Studies equips students with all necessary training to obtain an Air Transport Pilot License (ATPL). This program is delivered in partnership with an EASA-approved training organization. As a direct-entry course, applicants first undergo screening by the flight school to confirm their suitability for commercial pilot training before SETU Carlow processes their admission. Given the substantial program fees, potential students are advised to verify costs prior to submitting an application.
