B.S. in Aeronautics (PC) to M.S. in Aviation Safety (WW)

Students enrolled in the Bachelor of Science in Aeronautics (BSA) degree program at the Prescott College of Aviation have the opportunity to pursue the Worldwide Master of Science in Aviation Safety (MSAVS) in a combined degree program format.

The Bachelor of Science degree will be conferred upon completing the undergraduate requirements, and students will be enrolled in the Master of Science degree. In any graduate course taken by an undergraduate student, a grade of “B” or better must be earned. These credits will count toward the undergraduate and graduate degree requirements, provided the student maintains enrollment in the combined pathway program and receives a "B" or better in the courses. Students will be dropped from the combined pathway program if their GPA falls below 3.0. The BSA degree will be conferred upon completion of all bachelor's degree requirements; the MSAVS degree will be conferred upon completion of all master's degree requirements.

If the student chooses to leave the program before the completion of the MSAVS program and has acquired the minimal hours required for graduation with the B.S. in Aeronautics, any MSAVS courses used to meet graduation requirements will be noted as undergraduate courses for the purpose of graduation.

Approved Courses for the Combined Program

Students enrolled in the combined option must consult their academic advisor to determine appropriate course selection. Any three 500-level ASCI, AVSF, RSCH, and/or SFTY courses can be used to satisfy the Professional Development or Open Elective requirements.
