Course Overview

Saint Louis University’s Parks College of Engineering, Aviation and Technology was the first federally certified flight school in the nation, founded by Oliver L. Parks in 1927. Today, Saint Louis University is the only Jesuit university with a flight program, making us a premier institution for flight education. This Jesuit heritage means students learn to make ethical decisions that contribute to their personal and professional goals and allow them to enrich the community in which students live and work.

Students learn to fly in technically advanced light aircraft: the Diamond DA-20, Piper Archer PA28-181 with Garmin G1000nxi and Piper Seminole PA44. Advanced students further their studies of larger aircraft in a state-of-the-art Canadair Regional Jet-700 simulator. 

Additional program highlights include:

  • Saint Louis University is the only Jesuit university in the United States to offer aviation science degrees, and students are offered a much more well-rounded curriculum to educate the "whole person."
  • The flight training is conducted out of St. Louis Downtown Airport which is located between Lambert-St. Louis International Airport and Scott Air Force Base, providing aviation students with a complex and dynamic environment to learn to fly in.
  • The Department of Aviation Science has been granted a Letter of Authorization from the FAA making graduates eligible for a maximum reduction of 500 hours towards the 1,500-hour requirement for the Airline Transport Pilot Certificate.
