The programs at Lewis University are FAA-approved and nationally renowned. In fact, Lewis was just awarded the Loening Trophy as the nation's best all-around collegiate aviation program. It doesn't get much more perfect than that. Lewis University, a national pioneer in aviation education since 1932, is well known and highly esteemed, providing our aviation graduates with a solid professional network to tap into and competitive advantage. Because we provide more than simply a "technical" education, you'll be exposed to courses in business, management, technology, and liberal arts, which is exactly the type of holistic background that aviation employers desire. By 2035, about 1.5 million pilots and technicians will be needed, with another 800,000 jobs in aviation. As a result, our students are in higher demand than ever before. They are frequently recruited directly from the classroom. Lewis University is the starting point for aviation professions.
