I was thinking of doing some tertiary education with a view to moving into a desk job, in particular an airline desk job and I was wondering if anyone might know how the Masters qual is viewed by the airline industry employment decision-makers?
I have an ATPL(Helicopter). Nope, I'm not an airline pilot.
Do have bunch of different helicopter flying experience (multi-engine, EMS, Offshore...even some heli-mustering - dubious value...
)
Airlines have always been a point of interest for me and, since I don't actually want to become an airline pilot, the tertiary qualification seemed like the next best entry point.
The average Masters degree costs around $AUD14,000-$16,000 (although there is HECS-HELP). So, I don't want to go rushing in if it has no real competitive advantage.
I've been looking at the online courses with Griffith, Uni of Newcastle and Swinburne. The latter looks the most industry-relevant (albeit it's also the longest). Anyone care to comment on the best course?
Any ideas gratefully accepted.
