Answer
Hi,

Thank you for your question.

I am aware of three MBA courses in aviation, and they are offered by:

Embry Riddle Aeronautical University, Daytona Beach, Florida

Concordia University, Montreal, Quebec, Canada

Daniel Webster College, Nashua, New Hampshire

The latter two (Concordia and Daniel Webster) offer either pure on-line or hybrid on-line (some classroom attendance required) programs.

There is, I believe, one MBA program offered in India that relates to aviation, but, please check on it via an internet search engine (Google or Yahoo) to find it.

Best wishes to you,
