Degrees in Aviation

School of Aeronautical Science

What is aeronautical science? It’s the study of aviation. We offer all the elements: design, electronics, air traffic control, computer science, mechanics, technology and flight.

LETU gives you a broad degree in aviation from a Christian perspective. Our curriculum gives you options once you graduate. Plus, we’ve got connections in the aviation industry and several mission aviation organizations. FYI: We have excellent placement for all of our graduates. Our solid, hands-on degree concentrations teach the skills and knowledge you need to be successful in the aviation industry. Our state-of-the-art airplanes and labs utilize the very latest technology: electronics, composite materials, computer software and jet engines.

We are not about only meeting FAA minimums and producing average graduates. LETU’s aviation program is not an accelerated flight or maintenance training program- it is primarily designed for those who wish to become experts and leaders in the aviation industry. You wouldn’t choose the quickest, cheapest option for brain surgery-don’t do the same for your career! Choose a quality, professional aviation degree from an industry leader- all in a Christ-centered environment.
