Ed Parker, Instructor

LeTourneau University is committed to integrating Christian Leadership into the education experience. We are doing this by focusing on five Distinctives. They are: Broadening Knowledge, Grounding Values, Deepening Skills, Collaborating Service, and Discovering Purpose. The specific leadership distinctives integrated into Domestic and International Aviation Law includes:

Broadening Knowledge: The Domestic and International Aviation Law course will introduce you to numerous topics, concepts and applications of law that relate to aviation and business in general.

Grounding Values: God gave us law to help define sin. Man uses law to live in harmony with his fellow man.

Deepening Skills: The student will be able to recognize and apply legal principles to their conduct as an aviation professional and in business.

Discovering Purpose: The student might be attracted to the law as a career as a result of these studies.
