Faculty: R. Consigny
General Statement: A Bachelor of Science Degree (B.S.) in
Aeronautical and Industrial Technology is offered with three (3)
Concentrations: Industrial Electronics Technology, Aviation Management, and
Aviation Flight Training.
The department programs draw upon the principles and applications of sound
business management, arts and sciences and the latest in technology. These
principles are applied in the proper utilization of products, services and
the management of equipment and personnel.
The educational objectives for the Department of Aeronautical and
Industrial Technology are as follows:
- To provide the student with the knowledge of physical sciences, mathematics and engineering courses so that he/she has the capability to apply those principles within the aeronautical and industrial sector,
- To familiarize the student with the systematic scientific approach to the identification and solution of practical problems encountered in the working environment,
- To guide the student in determining the most effective ways for an organization to use the basic factors of production, people, machines, materials information, and energy in the making or processing a product,
- To assist the student in developing their managerial skills,
- To develop professional attitudes, ethical character and a through understanding of the individual’s role in society from both a national and international perspective,
- To provide the student with intellectual challenges designed to stimulate a curiosity and desire for lifelong learning, and
- To provide students with opportunities which will prepare them to interact effectively in multi-cultural and multi-discipline environments.
Elective Courses: In addition to the three concentrations, there
are elective courses in the following areas: Aviation Management, Airport
Management, Aviation Meteorology, Private, Commercial, Instrument,
Multi-engine, CFI, CFII, Theory of Flight and Engines, Aviation Legislation
and Aviation Safety.
The Department of Aeronautical and Industrial Technology is affiliated with
the following organizations: The University Aviation Association, The
National Association of Indusytrial Technology, The Council on Aviation
Accreditation and the Tennessee Aviation Association.
The Industrial Electronics Technology Concentration prepares students for
positions in business and industry that require a broad technical and
management background. It emphasizes the maintenance, operation and
management of systems and sub-systems within the industrial and
manufacturing sector.
The Aviation Science Programs are designated to provide a coordinated
program combining liberal arts with concentrations in either Flight Training
or Aviation Management. These concentrations lead to a Bachelor of Science
Degree. Students interested in future positions in industry-related
aviation, especially as either pilots or as managers, will benefit from
these concentrations. Tennessee State University is recognized by the
Federal Aviation Administration as an Aviation Education Resource Center.
Additionally, the University holds an FAR Part 141 Air Agency Certificate
(TUOS674K) from the Federal Aviation Administration to conduct pilot ground
school training.
Flight training is conducted through affiliate flight training schools
located within a ten-mile radius of the main campus. Flight fees represent
an additional cost to the student and are subject to market driven forces.
For a list of affiliate flight schools and related costs, please contact Dr.
William L. Anneseley, Department Head.
Academic credit for pilot certificates and ratings will be in accordance
with FAR Part 141 or 61 and in accordance with pertinent University
policies. Incoming freshman and transfer students must make an appointment
with the Department Head in order to have their FAA Certificates properly
evaluated and documented.
