The Aviation Management concentration offers instruction for students who are interested in careers in the various aspects of aerospace management. Selected general education and minor courses are interwoven with aerospace courses to provide students with a foundation for such careers.

All students choosing a concentration in Aviation Management must select a specific segment of the industry in which to focus. Students have the option of choosing from air traffic control (ATC), airport management, airline management, or transportation management. A significant culminating experience (in the form of a capstone course or internship) is required appropriate to that specific area of focus.
