The Doswell School of Aeronautical Sciences<br />
at Texas Woman’s University<br />
The aviation industry is facing a long-term demand for commercial pilots. According to the US<br />
Bureau of Labor Statistics, the demand for airline and commercial pilots is growing about 4%<br />
per year with an estimated 17,000 needed to meet this demand, annually. Additionally, historical<br />
barriers often prevent many from pursuing a career in aviation.<br />
Texas Woman’s Bachelor of Science in <strong>Aviation</strong> Science is one of only a few public university<br />
programs in Texas and one of the most affordable programs of its kind in the region and<br />
the nation.<br />
With several major and regional airlines based in the DFW metroplex, Texas Woman’s University<br />
is uniquely positioned to positively impact the industry’s workforce development and help solve<br />
the pilot shortage.<br />
Made possible by the generosity of the Houston J. and Florence A. Doswell Foundation, the<br />
Doswell School of Aeronautical Sciences welcomes its first cohort of students in Fall 2024.<br />
Led by aviation education experts, James Clinton Grant and Brittany Dinsmore,<br />
the degree path is designed to complete the flight hour requirement leading<br />
to a commercial pilot’s license. Students have the option to include business<br />
management classes to enhance their academic resume.
