Description
This unit of competency defines the skills and knowledge required to apply advanced scientific principles and techniques to avionic engineering situations.The unit applies to engineering or related activities requiring specific mathematical techniques and is suitable for people giving technical support in avionic engineering activities and those pursuing technical qualifications and careers at paraprofessional or technician level.Within this unit, avionic engineering is defined as the engineering discipline concerned with the conceptual development, research, design, manufacture, implementation, installation, commissioning and maintenance of aerospace electrical, instrument, radio and electronic systems and components and related test equipment for civil and military applications.Avionic engineering applications includethe description or definition of an objective or challenge requiring a conceptual development, design, manufacture and/or implementation and/or installation, commissioning andmaintenance response to affect a solution or improvement with regard to electrical systems and related wiring and components, mechanical and electro-mechanical flight instruments and indication systems, electronic systems and components or automatic test stations, adapters and software.No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.
