Speak Up: DSU Aviation Program signs agreement with United Airlines
Posted
The Delaware State University Aviation Program has had an affiliation with United Airlines since 2021. That relationship officially soared into a full-blown partnership Nov. 16, as university president Dr. Tony Allen and Capt. Mike Bonner, managing director of Aviate and pilot strategy for United, signed an agreement inside the Bank of America Building on campus. The agreement provides Delaware State aviation and aviation management students the opportunity to enter United Aviate — a pilot and career development program — at the end of their undergraduate studies.
