Requirements

The Master of Science in Aviation and Aerospace Sustainability (MSAAS) degree program is designed to provide students with the knowledge and comprehensive decision-making skills to act as forward-thinking managers of aviation and aerospace industry programs. In the program, aviation/aerospace sustainability is examined from two perspectives:

aviation and aerospace industries as business entities need to remain viable and as value-added partners in the pursuit of sustainable solutions for the conservation or renewability of the world’s resources.

Today, many aviation and aerospace industries operate on a global scale and require an in-depth understanding of both viewpoints to sustain as well as advance operations. The MSAAS will provide a collaborative learning environment rich with opportunities to challenge current thought processes, work in autonomous or group settings and connect with diverse populations across the world.
