Department of Aviation Science

Welcome to the Department of Aviation Science

As the founding chair of the Department of Aviation Science, I am excited to welcome the first cohort of aviation students to CBU. This is your opportunity to join an inaugural class of students and be the very first students to graduate from CBU with a Bachelor of Science degree in Aviation. Beginning Fall 2013, students will be able to pursue a Bachelor of Science degree in Aviation, with a major in either Aviation Flight or Aviation Management.

You may decide to pursue flight, just as the Wright Brothers did back in 1903. You may decide to pursue aviation management, and become an airport manager, a Safety and Security Manager, or an Aviation Consultant. Whether you choose to fly, or manage some other aspect of the aviation industry, you can pursue your passion for aviation and live your purpose right here at CBU. We excel at educating you to the highest potential and giving you the tools and opportunities you need to succeed in the fast-paced and very rewarding aviation industry.

Please spend some time learning more about us and our programs and feel free to contact me with any questions. I look forward to welcoming you into the first class of CBU Aviation Science students!
