The National School of Civil Aviation (ENAC) is internationally regarded as one of the top aviation and aeronautics universities, upholding the bar for excellence in the industry. In recent years, the aviation sector has undergone significant changes, driven by various challenges such as the climate crisis, new technological integration, shifts in the international context, and the increasing demands for a safer, smarter, and more efficient system.
