SCHOOL OF GRADUATE STUDIES
Spearheading the Evolution of Aviation
The School of Graduate Studies offers five degrees: the Master of Science in Aviation, Master of Science in Occupational Safety Management, Master of Science in Space Operations, Master of Science in Uncrewed Systems and the world’s first Ph.D. in Aviation. As offerings continue to evolve, the School of Graduate Studies will focus on the areas most critical to the future of aviation: safety and maintenance, uncrewed aircraft systems, simulation and modeling and sustainability in aviation and aerospace. Making the revolutionary routine requires the cooperation of academia, government and industry. From curriculum development to collaborative research, the college is joining forces with other organizations at the vanguard of aviation to propel the industry forward.
Imagine a campus that brings the best minds together to explore and collaborate. A place where you can ask questions and research pragmatic solutions. How do we adjust pre-flight protocol to minimize safety risks? What is the most effective way to use uncrewed aircraft systems in search and rescue missions? How do we stay on the leading edge of simulation training for pilots embarking on complicated air and space missions? At the College of Aviation’s School of Graduate Studies, students and faculty pose these and other difficult questions every day. Operating as a diverse alliance of departments across the college, they strive to find the answers. Established in 2017, the college’s School of Graduate Studies performs high-level, operational research at the speed of change. Agility, responsiveness and relevance are the hallmarks of the School of Graduate Studies’ approach, which gives faculty a lead role in shaping the school’s dynamic curriculum and direction of inquiry. Faculty members, all of whom have doctoral degrees and years of experience, frequently partner with private sector, government and military leaders to identify and solve critical aviation problems.
