The aeronautical science degree is available as either a flight or non-flight major. Choosing aeronautical science without flight provides a strong foundation in applied math and science for a career in a technical aspect of aviation, while aeronautical science - flight prepares you for a career as a professional pilot.
This degree is very versatile, offering even more with these two additional options:
- Prepare for a career in military aviation and participate in Army ROTC
- Specialize in air traffic control and be ready to apply to the FAA Academy upon graduation. Graduates of the Air Traffic-Collegiate Training Initiative (AT-CTI) program may be eligible to bypass the Air Traffic Basics Course covered during the first five weeks of qualification training at the FAA Academy in Oklahoma City.
