Colleges with aviation programs?

I've been super passionate about aviation recently, and I'm trying to find colleges that have programs specifically for it. Does anyone know any good schools with aviation majors or minors? Thanks in advance!

It offers various majors, including Aeronautical Science, Aviation Business Administration, Aviation Maintenance Science, and Unmanned Aircraft Systems Science.

2. Purdue University (West Lafayette, IN): Purdue's School of Aviation and Transportation Technology offers an Aviation Management major and an Aeronautical Engineering Technology major, which prepares students for careers as pilots, air traffic controllers, or aircraft technicians.

3. University of North Dakota (Grand Forks, ND): UND's John D. Odegard School of Aerospace Sciences provides a variety of aviation-related degrees, such as Commercial Aviation, Air Traffic Management, UAS Operations, and Aviation Management.
