AFIT Graduates Class of September 2007

Posted Friday, September 14, 2007

 

More than thirty scientists, engineers, and management specialists are the recipients of graduate and doctoral degrees from the Air Force Institute of Technology.  AFIT’s Graduate School of Engineering and Management held its September 2007 student recognition ceremony Thursday in the Institute’s Kenney Auditorium.  The graduating class was awarded 20 master’s degrees and 13 doctorates.

Dr. Michael L. Heil, Col., USAF (ret), former AFIT Commandant and current President and Chief Executive Officer of the Ohio Aerospace Institute, was the guest speaker at the ceremony.  Dr. Heil commented on AFIT’s rich history and emphasized the value of an AFIT degree.  He called the graduates the “future problem-solvers of the Air Force.”

Air Force officers composed the majority of the Class of September 2007; however, the Institute also graduated one Navy officer and two civilians, along with two international students, both from the Republic of Korea.  Upon graduation, most AFIT students will fill technical positions requiring advanced academic degrees in their respective fields of study from across the Department of Defense.

Congratulations to AFIT’s graduating class of September 2007!
