Mcfly,
Well it is wise you have examined the course content carefully, a lot do get disappointed with aero eng when they find out it is largely maths and physics and there are not many modules which are really aircraft specific.
My aero eng coure had a 1 in 3 dropout rate in the first year partly for that reason. Although the accredited degrees here the in the UK do have some practical content the emphasis is still on the maths and physics, therefore the Engineering degrees in your country do not sound that different in content to what I studied. If you are after a more practical experience then I think the Licensed Aircraft Engineer route may be more your cup of tea.
Genghis, very interesting, will have to discuss next time I see you.
