nnSAM DAWSON MAv
  I started my Master of Aviation study in 2015, after completing a
  Bachelor of Aviation (Air Transport Pilot) and Graduate Diploma in
  Aviation (Flight Instruction). I chose Massey’s Master of Aviation
  degree as I wanted to further my knowledge in the wider aviation
  industry, particularly in airport and airline management. The degree’s
  structure enabled me to study these topics in depth.
  With the wide variety of interests and specialties of the lecturers and
  supervisors, the degree gave me the opportunity to conduct research
  into a range of aviation topics. I found the lecturers to be especially
  supportive throughout my study. They always made themselves
  available to address my questions and guide me in the right direction.
  I am currently a Graduate Flight Instructor at the School of Aviation
  where I can apply what I’ve learnt from the Master of Aviation degree
  in my instruction to students.

          DOCTORAL STUDENTS SHOULD ENROL ONLINE
          Your initial research proposal needs to include sufficient information for
          your prospective supervisor to be able to assess your current knowledge
          around your research topic. It will also be used by the School of Aviation
          to gauge whether there is a current staff member within the School who is
          able to supervise your research.
          Students are enrolled provisionally in the first year of PhD study, during
          which time your research proposal is developed. You are then confirmed
          into the doctoral degree.

          ENROLLING IN THE DOCTORAL PROGRAMME
          You cannot enrol directly into a doctoral programme – you need to apply
          to the Doctoral Research Committee (DRC) for admission. If you’re a
          New Zealand citizen or hold New Zealand permanent residency, you can
