Tell me, what on earth is an "Aeronautical University" actually for?

Here in the UK we can turn a high school graduate into a PHD in Nuclear Physics (or Aeronautical Design & Engineering)in 4 yrs, and a dumb ATPL pilot at Oxford or Perth in just 11 months. What the hell do they do for all that time at these places?

Just curious.
