Wichita s first collegiate pilot program takes off this fall now that WSU Tech has opened enrollment for its two-year flight training program.
The program will prepare up to 15 students for several pilot careers, including commercial airlines, business aviation and cargo. Classes begin in August at the National Center for Aviation Training.
Graduates of the program will earn an associate degree and certification as a Federal Aviation Administration pilot. This will be the second state-sponsored flight school in the state, along with one at Kansas State s Salina campus.
WSU Tech President Sheree Utash said the school began developing a flight program in the past three years. Until now, it s prepared students for on-the-ground work such as manufacturing and repair.
