3.00 Credits
This course provides a thorough introduction to the technology which makes unmanned aircraft operations possible. This course will explore how circuitry and robotics are integrated into unmanned aircraft systems and their components. It will examine system programming and system control. Sensing systems for unmanned aircraft will be explored. (Fall, Spring) [Graded (Standard Letter)] Registration Restriction(s): None
-
3.00 Credits
This course familiarizes students with popular flight management systems in use in aircraft today and introduces flight management systems that may still be in various stages of development. The more common flight management systems will be covered in greater detail and on operational levels necessary for pilots to safely and successfully utilize those systems in flight. Much of this course is focused on the concepts of human factors related to the operation of these flight management systems. Onboard aviation weather equipment is included in the flight management systems discussed. This course includes both in-class instruction and hands-on experience. Hands-on experience is provided by means of various flight management systems simulators, emulators, software, and other such devices. (Fall, Spring, Summer [As Needed]) [Graded (Standard Letter)] Registration Restriction(s): None
-
3.00 Credits

Students learn about major historical milestones, ethical issues in aviation safety, regulatory oversight, risk and risk management, safety management systems, elements of human factors in aviation safety, ground safety programs, effective aviation safety programs, flight safety programs, airport safety programs, emergency response, and health and wellness. (Fall [As Needed]) [Graded (Standard Letter)] Registration Restriction(s): None
-
3.00 Credits
This course explores the history and impact of security on the aviation industry. Students learn about major historical milestones, crime and terrorism in aviation security, regulatory oversight, risk and risk management, security management systems, elements of human factors in aviation security, ground security programs, flight security programs, airport security programs, air cargo security issues, emergency response, and security operations. (Spring [As Needed]) [Graded (Standard Letter)] Registration Restriction(s): None
-
3.00 Credits
A study of atmospheric conditions and their effects on aeronautical operations. Topics covered include basic meteorological principles and physics, atmospheric properties, patterns of weather development, and associated aviation hazards including thunderstorms, wind shear, turbulence, and icing. Limitations, interpretation, and use of aviation weather equipment used in aviation activity are presented. Weather observation and forecasting resources and their influence on flight planning and performance are considered.

3.00 Credits
This course discusses unmanned aircraft mission planning and considerations for successful execution of mission plans. Students will plan and make preparations for real UAS missions. Students will also process and evaluate data retrieved from UAS missions. Principles of photogrammetry, global positioning systems, and geographic information systems will be discussed by analyzing data retrieved from UAS missions. This course is a co-requisite for PILT 2515 UAS Mission Flight Lab. Students must also register for, and participate in, the mission flight lab to actually fly the missions. (Fall, Spring) [Graded (Standard Letter)] Co-requisite(s): AVTN 2515 Prerequisite(s): AVTN 1135 - Prerequisite Min. Grade: C Registration Restriction(s): None
Prerequisite:
AVTN 1135 O PILT 1135
Corequisite:
AVTN 2515

2.00 Credits
This lab provides students advanced-level experience in flying unmanned aircraft missions. Students will increase their experience in line-of-site (LOS) missions as well as beyond-line-of-site (BLOS) missions. This lab builds on intermediate UAV flight experience gained in the Unmanned Aircraft UAS and BLOS Flight lab. This lab provides students advanced UAS operator experience through scenario-based missions. (Fall, Spring) [Graded (Standard Letter)] Co-requisite(s): AVTN 2510 Prerequisite(s): AVTN 1135 - Prerequisite Min. Grade: C Registration Restriction(s): None
