The research activities undertaken at ENAC have a specific character which relies on the original positioning of the school: the operation and safety of the air transport system.
ENAC scientific policy aims to respond to the societal objectives derived from analysis of a specific choice of themes adopted on a national and European level (SESAR program, Aerospace Valley centre, DGAC priorities, etc.). It relies on strong industrial, academic and institutional partnerships and on rapidly expanding human resources.
Creation of research chairs would allow ENAC's renown and credibility to be strengthened, but also that of partners for these chairs, in highly strategic areas.
