This program leads to an Associate of Applied Science in Aviation Technology. The student, having completed this course work, would have the background and skills to enter the aviation industry or continue towards a bachelor's degree in aviation science (or related field).
Career opportunities are available in airline, corporate and general aviation. Growth in major, regional and low-cost airlines will increase demand for all types of aviation professionals in these companies. In addition, aviation professionals with higher levels of experience and education will have more robust job opportunities. A large number of the positions created in the coming years will be the result of older workers retiring from the industry, prompting the need for new hires.
Formal articulation agreements with other colleges and universities indicate how Sinclair programs and courses will transfer to other institutions.
Students may choose the pilot specialization where they may earn specific Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) certifications.
