The Aviation Transfer Program at FVCC provides a broad
range of freshman and sophomore level classes designed to
provide students with the first two years of a four-year bac-
calaureate degree program to prepare them for transfer to
aeronautical science and aviation-related programs at four-
year colleges and universities. The FVCC Aviation Transfer
Program provides a firm foundation in the liberal arts,
together with flight training if a flying career is planned. It
is designed specifically for transfer to the aviation pro-
gram of Rocky Mountain College in Billings, Montana,
the mission of which is to educate and train individuals
to be professionals and leaders in the aviation industry.
Rocky Mountain College offers Bachelor of Science degrees
in Aeronautical Science (Professional Pilot), as well as in
Aviation Management. Graduates of the Rocky Aviation
Program are prepared to begin careers as pilots or managers
in the airline, business, air cargo, military, or other sectors of
the aviation industry. Completion of the general education
core and appropriate aviation course requirements at FVCC
for a two-year Associate of Science degree will permit the
student to transfer to the Rocky Aviation Program as a third-
year student (junior). Since programs, courses, and degree
requirements evolve with time, it is important that students
interested in the Aviation Transfer Program consult with an
FVCC academic advisor before beginning the program in
order to keep abreast of program changes, as well as to reg-
ister for classes in the proper order and at the proper time.
