AFIT Direct Entry 2014/2015 Admission Form Out
1. The Air Force Institute of Technology is a higher education institution engaged in imparting knowledge, skills and learning to students using specialised facilities and multi-disciplinary approach; a centre of excellence for serious innovative research and development for the aerospace, aeronautical, aviation and allied industries/disciplines.
2. Admissions into programmes offered in the
Institute are open to the general public. Traditionally, admission into
the Institute is gained through the JAMB UTME entry route. However,
admissions could also be gained through direct entry into any of the
Institute’s programmes other than the National Diploma programmes. To
this end, applications are invited from suitably qualified candidates
for preliminary and direct entry admissions into the following
programmes in the 2014/2015 Academic Session:
a. Pre-National Diploma (ND) Science and Technology. b. Certificate in Civil and Environmental Engineering Technology (CEET).
c. Pre-Higher National Diploma (Pre-HND) Programmes:
(1) Aircraft Engineering Technology (Airframe/Power Plant Option).
(2) Aircraft Engineering Technology (Avionics Option).
(3) Electrical/Electronics Engineering Technology.
(4) Purchasing and Supply.
d. Higher National Diploma (HND) Programmes.
(1) Aircraft Engineering Technology (Airframe/Power Plant Option).
(2) Aircraft Engineering Technology (Avionics Option).
(3) Electronics/Telecommunications Engineering Technology.
(4) Purchasing and Supply.
e. Post Graduate Diploma (PGD) Programmes.
(1) Aerospace Engineering (Aeromechanical Option).
(2) Aerospace Engineering (Avionics Option).
(3) Supply Chain Management.
3. The Pre-ND in Science and Technology is a one
year preparatory course which aims to assist candidates attain the
requirements for admission into engineering related ND programmes at the
Institute. The Pre-HND in Aircraft Engineering Technology Programme, on
the other hand, is a one-year orientation course specifically designed
for candidates with ND in engineering fields other than aircraft
engineering. The programme is meant to introduce students to aircraft
engineering and also provide a good foundation for such students to
further their studies in aviation related programmes.
4. The PGD in Aerospace Engineering at AFIT is a
one-year programme that is specially designed to prepare candidates for a
one-year MSc programme in aerospace engineering at Cranfield
University, United Kingdom (UK). Candidates, who on completion of the
PGD programme, wish to enrol for the Masters’ programme at Cranfield
University, UK can choose to specialise in one of the following fields:
a. MSc Aerospace Vehicle Design (Airframe and Airframe Systems Option).b. MSc Aerospace Vehicle Design (Avionics Systems Design Option).
c. MSc Thermal Power.
d. MSc Computational Fluid Dynamics.
e. MSc Flight Dynamics
