The
Airway Science curriculum is designed to place
special emphasis on operational and technical
management in aviation.
Students who elect to major in Airway
Science Management focus primarily on academic
concepts and operational practices involved in
aviation management.
The primary objective of the Airway
Computer Science curriculum is academic
preparation in the areas of computer operation,
programming, design and problem solving within
aviation. Both
Airway Science curricula are designed to place
additional emphasis on mathematics and the
empirical sciences as mental tools to furnish
students with a firm foundation in professional
disciplines with technical implications.
This
degree program provides students with the
opportunity to concentrate on one of two areas:
Airway Science Management and Airway Computer
Science. The
academic requirements of both Airway Science
curricula are structured in six different
components namely: general education
requirements and aesthetics, mathematics,
physical science, management, technical,
(aviation core) and aviation electives.
The Airway Science program focuses on four
educational objectives:
1)
To provide students with a sound
foundation in conceptual and applied
mathematics, empirical sciences, computer
sciences, social sciences, management and
aviation, adequate for entry level management
position, in aviation .
2)
To prepare students specifically for a
variety of administrative and managerial
positions in aviation and other
aviation related professional disciplines.
3) To prepare students to
effectively function in diverse areas of
computer operation, design, maintenance, problem
solving, and programming within the field of
aviation.
4) To
furnish students with an academic background
that is adequate for pursuing Graduate studies
in the field of aviation or other affiliated
areas of graduate work |
