Aviation Maintenance Science

The minor in Aviation Maintenance Science leads to the student becoming a Federal Aviation Administration certified Airframe and Powerplant technician. The A&P certification is required to successfully complete this minor. This technical certification is a valuable addition to many of the other degrees offered on the Daytona Beach Campus. Twenty-four credit hours of coursework from the Aviation Maintenance Science Department count toward the minor, but up to an additional 24 credit hours of AMS courses will be needed for A&P certification. A minimum of six credit hours, up to a maximum of 12 credit hours, will be upper-division (300-level) credit. Check the catalog information on the bachelor’s degree in Aviation Maintenance Science for the full listing of courses. The AMS coursework for a minimum of one rating must be completed in residence to be eligible for this minor.
