Civil Aviation Flight University of China

Introduction to Civil Aviation Flight University of China

Civil Aviation Flight University of China (中国民用航空飞行学院, website) is directly under the Civil Aviation Administration of China. Its predecessor was established in May 1956 and approved by Premier Zhou Enlai. The Civil Aviation Administration Aviation School of China was appointed by Chairman Mao Zedong. The 14th Aviation School of the Chinese People’s Liberation Army.

In October of the same year, the school was renamed as the China Civil Aviation Advanced Aviation School in accordance with the instructions of the Central Military Commission. In December 1987, it was renamed the China Civil Aviation Flight Academy.

After nearly 62 years of construction and development, the university has become the world’s largest full-time university with the largest scale and strongest flight training, and has a high impact in China, especially in the world’s civil aviation. More than 90% of China ’s civil aviation captains have graduated here. The school is known as the “cradle” of Chinese civil aviation pilots and the “Huangpu” of Chinese civil aviation management cadres.

The physical engines used for education and education account for about 80% of the domestic fleet’s engines. At the same time, the school is a maintenance and overhaul center authorized by well-known aviation companies such as Bendix / King’s and Lycoming Motivation, Continental Engines, etc. It is an “ICAO” pilot, controller English “examiner” training center authorized by China Civil Aviation, Examination centers, aircraft maintenance license examination centers, flight dispatcher training centers, engineering technology training centers, and provide technical support and training for China’s civil aviation legislation and building standards.

Discipline:

The university has formed a number of brand professional groups and superior disciplines that have significant influence in the international, domestic and civil aviation fields under the five disciplines of science, engineering, literature, management, and law. It is a pilot unit of the “MPL” curriculum that the United Nations focuses on. The school has 7 national and provincial key majors, and 17 national or provincial ministry-level courses. Among them, the flight technology major is a national-level talent training model innovation experimental area, and the navigation laboratory is the “Sichuan Experimental Demonstration Center”. At present, the school has 7 master’s training points, 18 training directions, and 7 international cooperation projects (US, UK, France, etc.). It also has 30 specialized colleges. The teaching and talent training covers civil aviation and general aviation. field.

Over the years, the Civil Aviation Flight University of China has maintained a strong momentum of scientific research. In the past 5 years, the school has undertaken 33 national projects including the 863 Program, the National Natural Science Foundation of China, and the National Social Science Foundation of China, and has won 127 national, provincial and ministerial scientific and technological achievement awards. The school currently includes national civil aviation flight technology and aviation safety key research bases, China Digital Simulation Joint Experimental Center (in cooperation with Sichuan University Zhisheng), Plateau Flight Research Institute and Navigation Laboratory (Sichuan Provincial Experimental Demonstration Center), etc. 7 provincial and ministerial scientific research bases (key laboratories). The continuous strengthening of scientific research and laboratory construction has also injected vitality into the quality of teaching and personnel training. In 2014 alone, our university students won 5 first prizes, 7 second prizes, 3 third prizes and 11 outstanding prizes in national competitions such as computer software, mathematical modeling, aeromodelling, and English speech.

International cooperation and exchange:

Since the beginning of the 1960s, Civil Aviation Flight University of China has started accepting foreign students from abroad, and has trained more than 6,000 flight, aircraft, and air traffic control personnel for 16 countries and regions in Asia and Africa.
