Methodology, software & labs

How you'll learn

100 % online training on the SEIUM campus, with downloadable material, recorded classes and a assigned technical tutor. No fixed timetables: the student progresses at their own pace within the intake, which allows it to be combined with work.

Each module combines theory, guided reading of the original standard and applied exercises. The working software is GPS-X, BioWin, AutoCAD, Advanced Excel, in free, academic or evaluation versions. Tests are studied using real procedures from pilot treatment plants, sampling and laboratory analysis, and environmental audits of installations. Assessment is continuous per module plus the final integrating project.

Accreditable laboratories(EN ISO/IEC 17025) with rotor bench, EMC/Lightning pre-compliance, HIL/SIL, vibration/acoustics.
Evidence-focused Master's Thesis:safety case, test plan, compliance dossier and operating limits.
Industry mentoring:lecturers with experience in training, , eVTOL/UAM and flight test.
Flexible format(hybrid/online), international cohorts and support from SEIUM Career Services.
Ethics and safety:safety-by-design approach, cyber-OT, DIH and compliance as pillars.
