Pilots Lisence vs. Diploma vs. Degree

[Ghoul]

I'm currently busy with my 1st year in tertiary studies,Bsc, and having a CPL aswell...i would have to say that one cannot compare the two..they are uniquely challenging in their own way...each having its own degree of difficulty, as far as workload goes..I'd say CPL is rougly equivalent to 1yr tertiary...but let me not generalise too much...as there are many other fields where the workload is much higher...

My personal opinion is that a CPL+ATPL deserves more recognition than merely a license,but not quite to the level of a degree... Maybe if they combine aviation safety or some type of management aspect into it then yes...
