Accreditation

In 1992, UND became one of the first aviation programs to be accredited in the country. Since that time, we have been leading the way for aviation collegiate education. Aviation Accreditation Board International (AABI) programmatic accreditation ensures that our programs are meeting the criteria established by educators and aviation industry partners. Only 34 aviation programs around the world are AABI accredited.
