Process Takes Factors Such As Faculty Quality,
Teaching Resources, Facilities, Flight Training Into Account
Kansas State University Salina's professional pilot program is
in elite company with renewed program accreditation from Aviation
Accreditation Board International. The accreditation is good for
another five years.
"The accreditation means we are among a relatively few
collegiate aviation programs in the world that have been evaluated
according to very stringent criteria and found to be worthy of the
AABI seal of approval," said Kurt Barnhart, aviation department
head. "Receiving this accreditation means that our students are
receiving the highest quality flight education possible."
"Being AABI accredited reinforces the fact that we have a top five
aviation program," said Dennis Kuhlman, CEO and dean of K-State
Salina. "Because we are continually working to exceed accreditation
standards, our program is continually one of the best in the
country."
The Aviation Accreditation Board International is the only
professional, specialized accrediting organization approved by the
Council on Higher Education to accredit aviation professional
programs at universities in the United States and around the world.
Only 26 of the more than 100 universities and colleges with
aviation programs in the nation have earned the board's
accreditation. The accreditation process analyzes every aspect of a
program, including faculty quality, teaching resources and
technology, facilities, academic and flight training curricula,
connections with the industry and community, and services for
students.
