sUAS Operational Planning and Safety Management

Catalog description

This course allows students to build upon their previously attained small uncrewed aircraft system (sUAS) operational knowledge, skills, and abilities (KSA)s. Students will apply concepts, methods, and tools of effective planning and management of sUAS operations toward graduate-level applied research goals in real-world-relevant settings. Through scenarios-based training, interactive modeling and simulation, and actual (live) sUAS operation, students will gain further exposure and practical experience in the task-oriented application of sUAS. A comprehensive application exercise will allow students to demonstrate proficiency. With the successful completion of this course students can expect to have gained further KSAs supporting the purposeful, productive, legal, and responsible operation of sUAS.
