Khabarovsk University Launches Free Drone Engineering and Flight Training Course

Pacific National University (TOGU) in Khabarovsk is set to launch a new professional development course on drone engineering and flight training. The programme, titled 'Engineering and Flight Training for Unmanned Aircraft Systems', begins on 20 March and will run for up to six weeks. Participants will receive free instruction in both theory and hands-on practice.

The course will cover a wide range of topics, from pre-flight checks and ground control operations to maintenance, diagnostics, and repairs. Students will also learn about legal regulations, flight safety, and team coordination. A key focus will be on ensuring compliance with aviation standards while developing practical engineering skills.

Training will involve FPV drones capable of carrying payloads between five and ten kilograms. TOGU has equipped a specialised facility with flight simulators and advanced technical resources to support skill development. The university is additionally working with the 'Nature Protection' environmental movement to establish a dedicated drone sports training ground.

Upon finishing the programme, participants will earn a certificate of advanced training. The most skilled graduates may also have the chance to join TOGU's drone sports team, representing the university at national competitions.

The initiative aims to provide high-quality, cost-free training in drone technology while fostering a competitive sports platform. With a mix of classroom learning and practical exercises, the course prepares students for both technical and regulatory challenges in unmanned aircraft operations.
