Our Information Technology students had the opportunity to visit the Choctaw Nation Emerging Aviation Technology Center today in Daisy, Oklahoma. This facility is a one-of-a-kind aviation test facility in southeastern Oklahoma that utilizes 44,600+ acres of remote land tribally owned by CNO to support innovative RDT&E of emerging manned and unmanned aerial system technologies in a safe and low-risk environment. Our students were able to see the possibilities and where they might find great careers in an aviation technology and innovation cluster in southeastern Oklahoma.
REMINDER: Pontotoc Technology Center will be closed Friday, April 18th and Monday, April 21st.
