Addresses the Needs of the Air Transport Industry
OAKDALE, NY - Dowling College now offers the nations only MBA in Aviation Management with an option to take an additional four undergraduate aviation courses. This Dowling MBA enables students with a non-aviation undergraduate degree to sit for the FAA Air Traffic Control Exam. This program offers students who already have undergraduate degrees in any field the opportunity to make a career change. This degree program can also help current aviation professionals advance their careers and ensure that they become valuable assets to the air transport organization with which they are affiliated.
The MBA in Aviation Management provides students with an understanding of the air transport industry, the challenges and issues it faces, while simultaneously providing the aviation industry with what it needs most; aviation management graduates who understand the intricacies of the air transport business. The air transport industry plays a vital role in today's global society. As the primary mode of long- distance transport within and between nations, air transport has become a crucial facilitator of economic activity. Liberalization, technological change, and falling trade barriers are some of the trends that have ensured that we are living in an increasingly global society. By facilitating the movement of people and goods, air transport acts as a catalyst and contributes to the world's economies.
The FAA enthusiastically supports Dowling's effort to include the MBA Program in the qualifying degrees for the AT-CTI program, said Sherry Reese, FAA, Acting Manager, Controller Training Division.
