Master Maintenance Aeronautique — Maintenance aéronautique structure

At Université de Bordeaux, the tuition fee is 250 EUR per year.

Université de Bordeaux offers the Master Maintenance Aéronautique with a Maintenance aéronautique structure (Aeronautical Structural Maintenance) track at its campus in Mérignac, France. This field trains students in the inspection, diagnosis, and repair of aircraft airframes and structural components, an area of aeronautical maintenance governed by strict safety and regulatory standards. Students typically study aircraft structural design, materials used in airframe construction, damage detection and repair techniques, and the regulatory frameworks that govern airworthiness and maintenance documentation. Coursework often combines technical instruction with practical, hands-on repair and inspection exercises, since structural maintenance work requires both theoretical understanding and manual proficiency with specialized tools and procedures. Students also learn to interpret technical manuals and maintenance records, skills that are central to working within a regulated aviation maintenance environment. This training prepares graduates for technical roles that keep aircraft structurally sound and compliant with civil aviation requirements throughout their operational life. Career paths commonly include positions as aircraft structural maintenance technicians or engineers, quality inspectors, or maintenance planning staff within airlines, maintenance and repair organizations, or aircraft manufacturers. The degree spans two years and is expected to begin in September. All instruction is in French, so a solid command of technical and regulatory French is necessary to follow the coursework. Yearly tuition is 250 EUR, consistent with the standard tuition rate applied to master's programs at French public universities. Université de Bordeaux delivers this program from its Mérignac site, located within the aeronautical industry area near Bordeaux in southwestern France.
