Help!

Hi everyone, I’m about to start my first year of college, and I’ve chosen Aviation Management as my degree path. It’s an associate degree, I picked it because my goal is to become an airplane inspector one day. I’ve always loved being around planes, and my passion for aviation is really strong. Lately, I’ve been reading through Reddit, and I’ve seen a few people say that Aviation Management is a bad or a “worthless” degree. That’s honestly kind of scary to hear, especially with college starting in just a month. Is there any truth to that aviation is a usless or bad degree? Should I keep going with my associate’s degree in Aviation then switch it up for my bachelor’s? If so, What degree should I do next? Buisness? Im really confused and need help!

An associate degree in Aviation Management is worthless for pretty much anything. Even more so if your goal is to become an airplane inspector. As another poster said, you should get an A&P license or a bachelor degree in Aeronautical Engineering. You should see if your college has an aviation maintenance program. If so, this will put you on the path to an A&P license.

You’re going to need an A&P. Or, an engineering degree.

You said you want to be an Aircraft Inspector. Describe what kind of job that is or please link to a job posting for Aircraft Inspector.
