For every hour an airplane spends in the air, a technician must spend numerous hours on the ground performing routine maintenance. With strict Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) requirements and the large volume of commercial and private air traffic, graduates from Texas State Technical College 's Aviation Maintenance Technology (AER) program are in big demand. The Aviation Maintenance Technology program at TSTC prepares individuals to apply modern aircraft scientific knowledge to the installation, testing and maintenance of complex equipment.

In addition, the FAA has approved TSTC to provide the training necessary before testing for your Airframe and Powerplant #FT8150Q (A&P) ratings.

Instructors work one-on-one with students to assist them in reaching their individual career preparation goals. With a low faculty-to-student ratio, the focus remains on student success.

TSTC Waco's program helps students prepare for employment in a variety of areas, from fixed-base operations at small airports to jobs with major airlines in large metropolitan areas.

As a graduate of the program, you may qualify for positions with titles such as powerplant technician, airframe technician, repairman, sheet metal/structures worker, electrical installer, line mechanic, inspector or quality control technician.
