These programs are designed to teach students entry-level technical skills in electronics that are applicable in aviation as well as other industries. Students learn to read and use aircraft maintenance manuals and how to read and interpret aircraft commercial drawings and electronics schematics. They study FAA regulations and learn the proper use of basic tools and test equipment, study electronic theory, and have hands-on training in the installation, troubleshooting and repair of electronic and avionics systems. Students learn many aspects of Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS), including classes, size, capabilities/limitations, and different technologies. General education courses provide students with foundational information of diverse subject matter, fostering critical thinking and communication skills.
