AIRSPACE MANAGEMENT

Catalog description

This course studies the dynamic, integrated management of air traffic and airspace including air traffic services, airspace management and air traffic flow management — safely, economically and efficiently — through the provision of facilities and seamless services in collaboration with all controlling and operations entities and involving airborne and ground-based functions. Students also focus on the aggregation of the airborne and ground-based functions (air traffic services, airspace management and air traffic flow management) required to ensure the safe and efficient movement of aircraft during all phases of operations. This course compares and contrasts uncrewed operations and crewed operations within the context of Advanced Air Mobility and the National Airspace System. An introduction to space operations is also discussed.
