Prepare for Take-Off!
Aviation – Three Options
In September of 2013, the University of Maine at Augusta, in collaboration with Maine Instrument Flight, launched the UMA Bachelor of Science in Aviation program.
Later, in 2017, UMA started offering a program for remote pilots flying small Uncrewed Aircraft commonly referred to as drones.
New for 2024 The Aviation Maintenance Technician School program offers hands-on training, flexible learning options, and high-demand career opportunities.
Already have your pilot’s license, but want your Bachelor’s degree?
UMA also offers a Bachelor of Applied Science for students who have completed 41 credits of technical training (including flight or military training). That’s more than a third of the way to your degree!
The Aviation program at UMA has given me top-notch flight training in a real-world environment. Everyone is very personable and will work with you to make sure you have all the necessary tools to succeed in whatever aviation career you are pursuing.
