i know in london met atleast there is a 3 year course that does give u a degree which the ATPLS is more or less the same as the second year. however i belive that if you do the rest of the studying for the degree you will get an undergraduate degree not a masters. for a mastars there is a lot more analysing on subjects involved than in a Bsc/BA

Thanks nashers,I saw that course also,have the Bsc already tho. Can't find anything out there for masters with atpl tho. Would be nice to do ATPL subjects and get some college credit for them. A taught masters would be years study,atpls are about 6months combine these with 6months uni theoretical subjects - thought this would make a nice taught masters course...

Don't hold me too it but I'm pretty sure Cabair do some kind of degree with the ATPL's built in.

I'm 90% sure they do anyway!!
Good luck

Whereas there are a number of undergraduate degrees that include ATPL exams within them I don't think you will find ATPL exams are anywhere near the standard required for inclusion in a postgraduate degree.
