Catalog description

Few industries are as important to the economic and social well-being of a nation as transportation. Aviation is an integral part of the infrastructure of a global economy. Yet, since the beginnings of the industry in the 1920's, as a whole, airlines have struggled to earn a sustainable profit. This industry has long faced significant structural impediments toward achievement of that basic objective. This course explores these challenges, but also studies the innovative methods utilized by airlines to overcome and be successful in aspects of this global industry.
