Courses are taught in fixed or rotor wing options.  Each student successfully completing the degree program will have obtained a minimum of a commercial pilot certificate with an instrument rating. Classes leading to Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) certification must adhere to FAA guidelines. These guidelines require students to attend a minimum number of classroom hours.
