Several accelerated and combined bachelor’s to master’s programs are available.

Labs and facilities include: Aerospace Forensics Lab Air Traffic Control Labs High-Altitude Normobaric Lab Meteorology Broadcasting Studio Peter Vosbury Turbine Engine Lab and Test Cells Satellite Mission Control Center

Spatial Disorientation Lab Uncrewed Aircraft Systems Training Lab

From the Aerospace Forensics Lab, where students examine actual aircraft to investigate the cause of an accident, to the Meteorology Broadcasting Studio, where meteorology students prepare for on-camera forecasting, our College of Aviation boasts unrivaled labs. Air traffic control labs, including the En Route Lab, Control Tower Lab and TRACON Lab, simulate airspace and actual FAA procedures to prepare students to excel as air traffic controllers.

The Payload Applied Technology and Operations Lab supports design and development of space research payloads and instrumentation for suborbital and microgravity flights. The High-Altitude Normobaric Lab (HAL) teaches future pilots how to recognize the signs and symptoms of hypoxia, a state of oxygen deficiency that impairs brain function, to gain an understanding of this emergency and take action.
