Unmanned Aircraft Systems
Unmanned Aircraft Systems prepares students to fly drones under the Federal Aviation Administration’s (FAA) Part 107 guidelines. Students get an overview of the national airspace system, FAA regulations, and the design and operation of small drones. Students monitor weather, address loading and performance of drones, and coordinate flight operation logistics. They perform administrative tasks, train to fly, and, finally, fly small unmanned aircraft systems (sUAS).
