This is school instructs its students in all aspects of SFMC Aerospace operations. Students will learn the roles and responsibilities for ground and maintenance crews, how to perform as forward aerospace controllers, and even advanced aerospace combat techniques. The Aerospace School is administered through the Office of the Commandant, STARFLEET Marine Corps Academy by the Aerospace Branch Director. Courses are currently available through the AE-30 level and all are available online for immediate credit.

The manuals necessary  for these courses can be downloaded from the SFMCA Library.

AE-10 Aerospace Basic Course: This is step on in the Aerospace Branch Education Program. This course acts as an introduction to all phases of the Aerospace Branch. Prerequisite for this course: PD-10.

AE-20 Aerospace Advanced Course: Step two in the Aerospace Branch Education Program. This course delves into Aerospace Operations in more depth and detail. Prerequisite for this course: AE-10.

AE-25 Aerospace Atmospheric Pilot Training: An alternative to the AE-30 Course, the AE-25 course offers Marines an alternative route to earning the right to wear SFMC Aerospace Wings. AE-25 does not, however, confer a degree upon successful completion. This challenging course concentrates on the real-life aspects of aerodynamics, control surfaces, navigation, flight hazards, instruments, and military flying. Prerequisite for this course: AE-20.

When requesting this exam please include your preferred "Callsign" that you would like to use. Upon successful completion of this course your chosen "Callsign" will be assigned to you if it is available.

AE-27 Flight Engineering School: The next test in the flight qualification series is the AE-27. This school is designed to challenge the student to learn more about the technical aspect of aviation in the Star Trek realm. The AE-25 concentrated on different aspects of flying a craft, the AE-27 concentrates on the technical aspects of a craft. Prerequisite for this course: AE-25.

AE-30 Aerospace Independent Study Course: For the final step in the Aerospace Branch studies the student must complete an independent studies project. The independent studies project must either consist of a paper or another approved project. The student MUST submit a topic or project description to the Branch Director for approval. Once approved the student will then have 10 weeks to submit their independent studies project for grading. After submittal and if the student receives a passing grade, then the student will be awarded a Bachelor of Military Science Degree with a Concentration in Aerospace Studies. Prerequisite for this course: AE-20.
