Research at the College of Aeronautics

The College of Aeronautics' programs incorporate a multi-disciplinary approach to research that spans across various programs including engineering, human factors, safety, psychology, computer science and biology. Courses are designed to help students become more comfortable and familiar with conducting research, a vital part of any degree program.

The College of Aeronautics manages an impressive inventory of aircraft and simulators that are available for research, as well as a large pool of qualified instructor and student pilots holding various ratings and certificates. Additionally, students have access to various labs and other facilities such as the Advancing Technology and Learning in Aviation Systems (ATLAS) lab, Airport Management and Development lab, Air Traffic Control lab, Basic Aviation Training Device (BATD) Lab, Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS) lab, and the Emil Buehler Center For Aviation Training and Research.

Our Alumni Association and faculty provide our students with direct connections to organizations such as NASA, FAA, Air Force Research Lab, L3Harris Corp, Northrop Grumman, Avidyne, and many of the commercial pilot associations.

Undergraduate Research

The College of Aeronautics promotes student understanding of and participation in research. Aviation Research (AVT4002) is a senior undergraduate course, in which students plan, conduct, and present group research projects on a variety of aviation-related topics from aviation management and human factors to safety and aviation environmental science. Topics are instructor-approved and vary by semester.

A sampling of some prior research:

  • Florida Tech pilots’ willingness to report through the ASAP
  • Analyzing two different approaches to training private pilots
  • Decision making and the Flight Risk Assessment Tool (FRAT)
  • Examining the relationship between airport station staffing and ground operation incidents
  • The impact of employee’s experience on ground operation incident rates
  • Effect of attrition of ramp agents on ground operations incidents
  • The relationship between airport size and ground operations incidents

College of Aeronautics undergraduates, recent graduates, and faculty members frequently present research at conferences and publish. Several students have won awards at the University Aviation Association student poster competition:
