Only 6 of the courses in it are UAS specific, the rest are the same type of courses that all of the other commercial aviation students take. So, I hope you like/are prepared for doing a lot of manned aircraft training (aka spend a lot of money) because the UAS program is heavy on that too. The facilities at the aerospace school are excellent though. If you are into UAS, this is a great program because nobody else really has a degree program so you will most likely get a good job flying UAS for one of the defense contractors. Also the Grand Forks/ND is very UAS orientated, which is a good thing because the local opportunities are only going to grow.

I assume you have looked at this already, but here is the link for the required course work.
