Sri Lanka’s Nawaloka Group ties up with South Korean university to provide aviation related study programmes

A fully-owned subsidiary of Sri Lanka’s Nawaloka Holdings, Nawaloka Air Services, has recently tied up with a prestigious South Korean university to provide aviation related study programmes to Sri Lankan students.
According to reports, South Korea’s Hanseo University is a private university established in 1991 and the aviation school was added a decade later in 2001, with a flight training school also being added in 2005. The university’s Taean Airfield supports accredited training for private and commercial aircraft licenses, while also giving students hands on experience within the school itself.
Speaking on the signing of the partnership Director of Nawaloka Air Services, S.C Byun has been quoted as saying, “Nawaloka is proud to be affiliated with the Hanseo University and provide students the opportunity to study aviation in a state-of-the-art university in South Korea. Hanseo is one of the most recognized universities in the region itself and this opportunity is huge for those who truly wish to see their dreams take flight”.
Nawaloka Air Services will provide courses in Aeronautical Engineering, Flight Operations, Air Transportation and Administration, Avionics and Computer Simulation, Air Tourism and Services, Aviation and the Leisure Industry Studies, Helicopter Operation, Unmanned Aircraft Operations and Aviation Software Engineering.
Hanseo University is also affiliated with the government of South Korea and several aviation bodies in the country and Asia.

OSL take:

The partnership between Nawaloka Air Services and South Korea’s Hanseo University to provide aviation related study programmes to Sri Lankan students indicates the existence of a demand for new fields of education for Sri Lankan youths. The Sri Lankan government is already engaged in developing its domestic aviation sector and the new partnership would benefit the country’s aviation sector by providing a skilled workforce in the sector. Local companies could explore for similar opportunities in the higher education field and look at forming joint ventures that would be beneficial to all stake holders.
