AIM’s Aviation Maintenance Technical Engineer (AMTE) focuses on providing a well-rounded education.

Our 27-month curriculum covers everything you need to know to work on both historic and modern aircraft—from the basic theories of flight to advanced electronic systems. You’ll also receive instruction and hands-on training in a wide range of subjects, such as sheet metal and composite fabrication and repair, hydraulics, avionics and communications, piston and turbine engines, and more. You’ll graduate with the skills and confidence you need to succeed in this high-demand field.

Our instructors come to us with years of experience; some are AIM alumni themselves. Informed by the knowledge and skills they’ve gained firsthand, they’re committed to sharing their industry expertise and helping you navigate your career path.

As a graduate, you can search out a number of careers in the field of aviation, including aircraft mechanic, avionics technician, inspector, installer, parts manager, and service technician roles—all of which are opportunities found both domestically and abroad. 

Throughout your time at AIM, you’ll build the skill sets required to pass the FAA tests and obtain a mechanic certificate with Airframe and Powerplant ratings. You’ll also leave the program prepared to take the Aircraft Electronics Technician’s certification and CertTEC exams.

Think of our AMTE as a rock-solid foundation—as a graduate, you have the flexibility to explore an array of aviation jobs. You’ll also have our dedicated Career Services team on call. Just like our instructors, they’re committed to helping you build a successful career and connecting you to opportunities that match your skills and goals.
