Notes:


  • All students must pass each AVT/UMS course used in their major with a C grade or higher. 
  • Students are strongly encouraged to pursue a Minor field of study, especially in areas where unmanned systems may play a large role in the future.   By learning and understanding a field of expertise, students will be able to effectively apply the technology to a business area.  Suggested minors include Aviation Technology, Criminology and Criminal Justice, Geographic Information Science, Computer Engineering Technology, Computer Science, Communication, and Business Administration.  Other ISU minors are available as well as the opportunity to obtain a double major.
