aviation degree with flight training
I know there are some universities with such degree. Is it worth spending 4 years for it? or is it better to get some other bachelor and than undertake flight training?

Leeds univesity (uk)
the course is called Aviation Technology and Pilot Studies and includes a PPL in the syllabus for approx 3.5k extra. Very interesting course although some modules are somewhat not too appropriate...
if i were u i would opt for a more recognized course and get your ppl in your spare time!

Get a degree in a totally different field first (law, economics, medicine, languages, whatever) and become a pilot on top of that. You will never be unemployed.
Just food for thought, but many of the current intake for the BAFPP are either on or are graduates of the Aviation Technology course at Leeds University.
Define "many"! Out of the 100 or so - 20, 30, 40, 50, 60....?

Are any of these uni courses with pilot training actualy worth doing if you want to be a pilot as some almost sound to good to be true such as this one: Courses | Bucks New University UK
If I do university I want to do a degree sort of relevant to the aviation industry but I want it to be one that airlines and training companies recognise. PLEASE help anyone !

For Aerospace/Aviation in the UK, Cranfield is probably one the best. It has more industry links than any other university in the area of aerospace.
