1. Students are expected to achieve and maintain a grade point average (GPA) <strong>of</strong> 3.0 or higher. This GPA is calculated in accordance with the guidelines contained in this catalog. 2. Hours completed: Graduate students are expected to satisfactorily complete 80 percent <strong>of</strong> their attempted course work. In general, full-time students should complete at least nine credit hours per semester, and part-time students at least five credit 34 <strong>Florida</strong> Tech hours per semester. Courses with grades <strong>of</strong> F, I, AU or W are attempted courses, but are not satisfactorily completed for the semester. 3. A master’s degree program is expected to be completed within six semesters, or 54 credit hours attempted. Cases will be reviewed on an individual basis when additional time is needed. The seven-story Crawford Building houses laboratories, classrooms and faculty <strong>of</strong>fices for the mathematical sciences, and humanities and communication departments.

The aviation management, aeronautical science and aviation computer science programs are fully accredited by the Council on Aviation Accreditation. The college <strong>of</strong>fers a Master <strong>of</strong> Science in Aviation with options in airport development and management, and applied aviation safety; and a Master <strong>of</strong> Science in Aviation Human Factors. Pilot training is an integral part <strong>of</strong> each flight option, and academic credit is awarded accordingly. Pilot training is conducted in conjunction with the normal academic programs, either as required or elective courses. The College <strong>of</strong> Aeronautics is a member <strong>of</strong> the University Aviation Association and the Council on Aviation Accreditation. The college is recognized as a Federal Aviation Administration Airway Science Institution and an Aviation Education Resource Center. University flight training is conducted under the provisions <strong>of</strong> Federal Aviation Regulations Part 141. Four aviation organizations for students are sponsored by the College <strong>of</strong> Aeronautics: Alpha Eta Rho, the national aviation fraternity; Women in Aviation International; the International Society <strong>of</strong> Air Safety Investigators; and the Falcons Intercollegiate Flight Team. Facilities The College <strong>of</strong> Aeronautics faculty and administrative <strong>of</strong>fices, laboratories and academic classrooms are located in George M. Skurla Hall, at the corner <strong>of</strong> University Boulevard and Country Club Road on <strong>Florida</strong> Tech’s main campus. Flight training is conducted by F.I.T. Aviation L.L.C., a subsidiary <strong>of</strong> the university that maintains and operates a fleet <strong>of</strong> approximately 35 single- and multiengine training aircraft at nearby Melbourne International Airport. This towered airport hosts a mix <strong>of</strong> air carrier and general aviation traffic on its three runways, and with five separate terminal navigation facilities, an instrument landing system and a radar approach control, it provides an excellent environment for pr<strong>of</strong>essional flight training. Superb <strong>Florida</strong> weather allows efficiency <strong>of</strong> scheduling and continuity College <strong>of</strong> Aeronautics 35 College <strong>of</strong> Aeronautics
