Program Expansion
Middle Georgia State University's School of Aviation is launching a part-time program option for people interested in aircraft repair and maintenance careers.
Beginning August 14, 2017, the School of Aviation is offering the certificate program in Aircraft Structural Technology in the evenings, with classes split between the University's Eastman and Dublin campuses. We included a #TBT (ThrowBack Thursday) photo of our partnership announcement to build the aviation program at the Downtown Airport in 2015.
