An examination of aviation/aerospace's interaction with the world from the viewpoint of positive and negative effects. Short term and long-term effects will be investigated to highlight the significant challenges associated with forming a sustainable future for the industry by examining case studies and best management and technology practices.
Investigate sustainable operations of aviation and aerospace organizations. Analyze how the distinctive operations of aviation and aerospace organizations could move along with sustainability practices. Sustainable strategies must be a core element within aviation and aerospace organizations; the development of a sustainable strategy should consider the distinctive characteristics of the industry and the interactions among its stakeholders.
Airports are complex systems, vital for the aviation industry and for all related sectors ant their activities. This course identifies the role of sustainability in airports operations, the schemes to reduce airports' environmental footprint, including net zero emissions schemes, energy efficiency and renewable energy sources plans, noise performance evaluation and waste and water management. Techniques to support airports to become healthier facilities for employers, employees, users, and community are also included in this course.
Aviation and aerospace industries reach across cultural and international boundaries. This course encompasses contemporary organization development (OD) and interventions that help organizations balance economic, social, and environmental objectives and behavioral issues in the industry. The course examines the principles of organization development, change, leadership, cross-cultural communications, diversity, and social equity.
Sustainable processes and operations in Air Traffic Management (ATM) systems. Address existing air traffic management operations, and new technologies, and schemes, SESAR, DREAMS and Performance Based Navigation (PBN), and their role in meeting sustainability principles.
Systems in aviation and aerospace are complex and diverse across many global platforms. This course investigates the design, development, operation, maintenance, and decommissioning of flight vehicles and the systems needed to keep them sustainable by applying forward-thinking engineering, environmental, and best practices to determine sustainable solutions. This course will also present the accelerating development practices that can benefit international aviation's contribution across the main pillars of sustainability.
For any aviation and aerospace activity and operations, it is essential to distinguish and evaluate the applicable sustainability policies, regulations and initiatives that guide the industry. National and international agencies set goals and schemes for aviation and aerospace regarding emissions, operations, design and fuel use. International treaties, the Paris Agreement, Pathways to net zero initiatives, ICAO's sustainability guidance, and national and international sustainability schemes in aviation and aerospace are some topics covered in this course.
Design and development of technologies that form the new, sustainable era of aviation. Electric Vehicles, Hydrogen fuel cells, Drones and Urban Air mobility vehicles, space operations and their role in aviation/aerospace sustainability are assessed, along with aerodynamic designs and structures for fuel-efficient aircraft with reduced noise and emissions generation.
Techniques and tools for sustainability in aviation and aerospace operations. Lean management, Six Sigma and ISO standards, sustainability guiding principles, risk management standards, and result-oriented quality tools are necessary for all auditing processes of a sustainable system.
