There’s more good news on the aviation horizon for the Dayton area.
Students can now prepare for careers as flight instructors or airline pilots through a new aviation degree at Wright State University. The program will also provide the training and skills needed for those who wish to pursue technical positions in the aviation industry.
Students can earn a Bachelor of Science in Aviation Science and Technology or a Minor in Aviation Studies.
Wright State’s aviation degrees will appeal to students who have a strong desire to excel in aviation and acquire the skill sets of a commercial or professional pilot.
Students can enroll in Wright State’s new degree programs beginning in the fall of 2024. Students may apply with or without previous flight experience.
“Wright State is excited to build on our innovative roots and offer a comprehensive aviation degree program that gives our students the skills to pursue careers as pilots while supporting our region and Wright-Patterson Air Force Base,” said President Sue Edwards.
