Avionics (R20)
Graduation Criteria
To graduate with a Diploma in Aerospace Avionics, you must satisfy the modular criteria set by the School of Engineering. Students should be able to do this within three years of enrolment, if they successfully complete five modules, or its equivalent, per semester.
How
the Modular Structure Works
Modules at RP fall into three broad categories, as can be seen from the course structure. They consist of Core modules, Elective modules and Freely Chosen modules. To satisfy the requirements of the Diploma programme, you must choose a specified number of modules from selected categories. These are summarised in the following table:

Core
Modules
There are three types of Core modules: General, Discipline-specific and Specialisation-specific modules. General modules aim to help you prepare the ground in generic skills such as cognitive, linguistic and communication, cultural and entrepreneurial skills, as well as personal development.
Discipline-specific modules focus on developing your knowledge of Aerospace Avionics while Specialisation-specific modules are designed to deepen your understanding of a specific area within Aerospace Avionics which you have chosen to pursue.
Freely
Chosen Modules
Lastly, two of the thirty modules can be freely chosen from the entire range of modules offered at the Republic Polytechnic.
