The CUNY Aviation Institute (AI) at York College, City University of New York, United States was established in 2003 by a grant from the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey to promote education and research for the aviation industry. The institute's headquarters is in Jamaica, Queens. In cooperation with local, national, and international partners, the institute aims to develop and disseminate instructional materials relevant to airlines, airports, aviation service providers, civil aviation authorities and related industries. AI aims to continuously develop quality programs of study at all academic levels, including credit and non-credit courses.
