THIS IS TAKING PRODUCTIVITY TO NEW HEIGHTS.
With its strong history of aviation education, flight training for traditional pilots, and innovative work with unmanned aircraft systems, Auburn is soaring.
From helping modernize bridge inspections and improving public safety to giving farmers a bird's-eye view of their crops, Auburn faculty are exploring ways unmanned aircraft can enhance our nation's industries and advance research in engineering, building science, and precision agriculture.
In 2015, Auburn received the nation's first FAA approval to operate a new Unmanned Aircraft Systems Flight School. By providing professional training with these aircraft, Auburn is leading the way as more businesses, state agencies, and enthusiasts enter the skies.
