At Northrop Rice Aviation Institute of Technology (NRAIT), your airframe and powerplant certificate is worth 60 quarter units towards an Aircraft Maintenance Engineering Technology degree or our new online degree program in Technical Management. Our degrees, designed specifically for the aircraft maintenance technician, will prepare you for a wide variety of engineering technology positions.

In response to the needs of the global aviation industry, NRAIT has been offering practical degree programs for over half a century with its innovative continuing education programs designed for aircraft maintenance technicians.

Our degree programs in Aircraft Maintenance Engineering Technology and Technical Management are unique in that they combine the hands-on experience of an A & P program with applied engineering studies. NRAIT pioneered this concept over thirty years ago after extensive consultation with aviation communities both in the United States and internationally. By continually updating the curriculum to meet the needs of the aviation industry, we have maintained global leadership with this innovative program.
