Aviation Maintenance Technology

Objectives for Aviation Maintenance Programs

These programs in Aviation Maintenance share a common core of courses required for the FAA Airframe and Powerplant License. In order to achieve a certificate of completion and qualify for the FAA written, oral, and practical examinations, a student must maintain a 2.00 cumulative grade point average and receive no course grade of “F." In addition, the student must pass all of the Departmental Comprehensive Examinations (General, Airframe and Powerplant). For the student’s first license, the General exam must be taken with either the Airframe or Powerplant exam, and both exams must be passed on the same day. For more details about the comprehensive examinations, please contact the department directly.
