So the history ordered that in the course of 70 years the Institute has changed its name several times and since 1992 it has been called Riga Aeronautical Institute, becoming a legal successor of earlier well-known educational institutions: RAUSS GVF, RAUSS GA, RLTU GA, RBAU GA.
The only one thing has remained unchanged – a high level of training of specialists.
Particular pride of the Institute is its graduates.
In the course of 70 years there have been trained:
• radio technicians - 17000
• air traffic controllers - 21000
• economists – transport managers - 8000
But ... The pride lies not in the quantity, but in the contribution of every graduate to the development of the sector where they work
