A potential means is proposed to enhance air traffic control safety through increased human performance capabilities of the nation's Air Traffic Controller Work Force. The FAA initiated the Airway Science Program to facilitate the development of collegiate education programs as a means of meeting future FAA manpower needs, primarily in the area of air traffic control. The FAA realized that it must update the skill level of its work force to adapt to an increasingly technical and automated environment. Research data gathered through this study should allow the FAA to better understand the potential of the Airway Science Program to enhance air traffic safety. This program allows the availability of a means of pre-hire training through a baccalaureate degree program which stresses technical and managerial capabilities. This will provide an air traffic control work force with the increased human performance capabilities which are required to staff the increasingly difficult systems of the rapidly developing National Airspace System.
