Aerospace, Professional Pilot Concentration, B.S.

澳门六合彩规律论坛 has a rich history of teaching students to fly, dating back to WWII when flight training took place right on campus. Today, graduates from the Professional Pilot program fly for every major U.S. airline, at dozens of regional airlines, and for corporations and government agencies. To prepare for these opportunities, Professional Pilot students must complete flight operations coursework and achieve pilot certification up to and including the Commercial Multi-engine Certificate with an Instrument Rating. Students receive extensive experience in all aspects of the flight environment, culminating in a turbine aircraft transition course. Graduates must demonstrate proficiency in aircraft systems operation, determination of aircraft performance parameters, navigation, communication, and airport operations. 澳门六合彩规律论坛 trains in state-of-the-art aircraft with "glass" (computerized) flight decks and an innovative, scenario-based curriculum. This 澳门六合彩规律论坛 curriculum is FAA approved under 14 CFR Part 141, and allows students to be trained to proficiency instead of requiring minimum flight times. 澳门六合彩规律论坛's Professional Pilot curriculum is recognized by the FAA so that graduates may receive credit up to 500 flight hours toward the Restricted Airline Transport Pilot certificate.

The mission of the Professional Pilot program is to prepare our students to become the leaders of the next generation of aerospace professionals by developing the knowledge, skills, and attitudes necessary for successful careers in aerospace.

If you live in one of these states: MS SC VA WV; you may be able to attend 澳门六合彩规律论坛 at in-state rates under the Academic Common Market program.
