About Kansas State University Salina
Kansas State University Salina joined the K-State family in 1991 as the College of Technology and Aviation. The campus has grown since then while continuing to provide a K-State experience in a small campus atmosphere.
We offer Bachelor’s degrees in Air Traffic Control, Airport Management, Avionics Maintenance Technology, Computer Systems Technology, Electronic and Computer Engineering Technology, Family Studies and Human Services, Mechanical Engineering Technology, Professional Piloting, Technology Management, Web Development Technology, and Unmanned Aircraft Systems.
We began offering the Professional Master of Technology degree in 2011. Associate’s degrees in Applied Business, Construction Engineering Technology, and Digital Media are also available.
The Student Life Center opened in 2009, providing first-class recreation and fitness facilities and serving as home to Cessna Lounge, a student hangout. Suite-style residence halls are close to our classroom buildings and parking is plentiful.
Despite all of this growth, class sizes are small and the professors and administrators know you by name!
