Drones are defined as an unmanned aircraft that can be guided remotely. Drone Innovation is the concept behind a course originally founded by Jade Garrett at George Mason University. It entails both research on, and the development of, drone technologies that assess multi-disciplinary needs. These needs include but are not limited to surveying air pollution, examining oyster populations, or even making films. In essence, the class encourages innovation by hosting expert seminars to teach and apply modern drone technology, and fosters creativity by merging the capabilities of drones with various academic fields.

Higher education Curriculum across the nation seems to be 4 or 5 years behind, failing to educate students on the tech which will likely exist in the industry they plan to work in. This gap in learning is due to a variety of factors, the largest being curriculum paths that are cemented in the institution and offer little opportunity for change.
