The trouble with doing these pilot studies degrees is trying to time the ATPL examinations with graduation. Do them too soon while still at uni, and they'll expire before you can get the CPL and IR done (remember, three years!) Do them too late and they'll interfere with the all-important final examinations for the main degree.

I guess what you're looking for is to graduate with a degree and CPL/IR - I don't think any of the UK providers supply such an outcome. Have you thought about Embry-Riddle in the US?

Much as I have a lot of time for Genghis on technical and flying matters I must admit to subscribing to mad-jock's point of view on this one, especially when considering aeronautical engineers who are also pilots. A simply dreadful combo
