The Aviation Sciences program offered by?Baylor University?provides a balance of aeronautical theory and application combined with technical education.?

Aviation Science majors choose one of three concentrations: Professional Pilot, Aircraft Dispatch or Air Traffic Control. The Professional Pilot concentration is for students planning to become a pilot. The Aircraft Dispatch concentration is for students wishing to pursue a career in the safety and control of commercial flight operations. The Air Traffic Control concentration is for students wanting a career in air traffic control.

Students interested in a career as a pilot might also be interested in Baylor's Air Force ROTC Program. The program uses many of the same resources as the Aviation Science program and is designed to build and train leaders for the United States Air Force.

The Bachelor of Science in Aviation Sciences (B.S.A.) degree is a four-year undergraduate program with multiple options so you can serve on the ground or take to the skies.
