On 23 March 2017, the Faculty of Aerospace Engineering  offered to the Blue Air company the Trophy Best Aerospace Engineering Employer Award 2016.

This trophy is presented every year to that company who employed most UPB-FAE graduates, bachelor, master, and doctoral, in the previous 4 years.

The prize was handed over to the CAMO Director Eng. Aurelian Bobei by the UPB-FAE Dean. Eng. Andrei Dobre, UPB-FAE graduate of 2014, Deputy Director for Safety of Blue Air was also present.

Blue Air is a young and dynamic airline. Its impetuous development in the past years, both in Romania, but also with new bases in other European countries, would have been difficult without competitive specialists, such as the Faculty of Aerospace Engineering graduates. The young engineers were recruited for the departments of aeronautical safety, maintenance and repair, flight data monitoring, dispatch.
