Bachelor Program
The AMA Professional Bachelor Program is designed specifically for university colleges and professional bachelor courses in manufacturing and engineering.
Belgium’s university colleges are known for their strong practical expertise and focus on applied learning, making them essential to the future of our high-tech manufacturing workforce.
Through AMA, students gain access to industry-driven challenges, company visits, and practical projects that bring the theory of the classroom into real industrial environments.
AMA supports university colleges and companies by:
Connecting students with relevant, hands-on manufacturing projects
Sharing industry expertise in CNC machining, CAD/CAM etc.
Supporting schools with tools, coaching, and visits to real workplaces

Some of our Professional Bachelor Projects
Built with aerospace tools. Named for aerospace innovation
An electric bike like no other—developed in 2014 by students and engineers from Thomas More and ASCO Industries.
Originally designed in aluminum, the project evolved into a titanium-framed masterpiece, manufactured using 5-axis CNC and aerospace-grade surface treatments.
From design and FEA to electronics and industrialization planning, the AEROBIKE became a true symbol of engineering ambition, precision, and sustainability.
Today, two of the original four students are proud ambassadors of AMA, proof that projects like this inspire real futures.
Precision in Every Detail
A future AMA project where a professional bachelor student from Design & Manufacturing Technology at Thomas More will design and manufacture a fully functional wristwatch, made from aerospace-grade titanium.
Using advanced technologies like 5-axis CNC and Wire EDM, the project will capture the full journey: from design to machining to metrology.
The AeroWatch will not only showcase technical mastery, but also serve as powerful content to promote precision manufacturing and inspire the next generation of engineers.
Maximum Distance, Minimum Fuel
A student team from Thomas More took on the challenge of designing and manufacturing a high-efficiency vehicle to compete in the Eco Shell Marathon, a global engineering competition where the goal is to travel the greatest distance on just one liter of fuel.
From lightweight design and aerodynamics to drivetrain optimization and material selection, the project brought together engineering, sustainability, and real-world innovation.
A true showcase of smart design, teamwork, and energy efficiency—driven by students, fueled by precision.
Exploring the future of digital manufacturing
For several years, Aerospace Machining Academy (AMA) has brought together students from Thomas More, ASCO, and Siemens Digital Industries to take on real challenges in computer-aided manufacturing.
Thanks to topics set up and guided by the academy, students worked closely with industry partners on CAM programming, tried out advanced NX plugins, and looked for new ways to integrate inspection processes into the digital workflow. Every project was part of a bachelor thesis, giving students hands-on experience and a chance to turn their ideas into real results.
