Aerospace medicine is the preventive medicine specialty that promotes the health and functional well-being of pilots, astronauts and other flight crew members, as well as all other people traveling in air or space. Wright State University's program is the oldest civilian aerospace medicine training program in the United States, having graduated more than 100 physicians from around the world since its inception in 1978.

This two-year training program consists of course work and research, leading to an Master of Science in Aerospace Medicine, thus establishing eligibility for the board examination for certification by the American Board of Preventive Medicine, with the subspecialty in Aerospace Medicine.

The impact of the WSU Aerospace Medicine Residency and Master's Program is worldwide. In addition to students from the United States, the program has attracted students from more than 20 foreign countries. Our graduates hold responsible aerospace positions throughout the world.

Program faculty, in addition to their teaching and research commitments, provide important service throughout the university, and participate in a variety of professional activities, both nationally and internationally.
