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. |
