Aviation Management College (Abbreviated: AMC; Malay: Kolej Pengurusan Penerbangan) is a private Malaysian institution with its mission set on preparing students who aspire to work within the aviation world.
Founded by ex-military countryman, Capt. Ab Manan Mansor, the College had been established since May, 2007. This idea of this college came around when Captain Manan found that the way he conducted lessons were positively-received by people. That is why he decided to open a facility so that people could come to him on their own accord.
AMC is located in Bangi, Selangor about 45 minutes away from Kuala Lumpur.
All staunches with relation to travel, aeronautical and people skills will be a matter of interest to the college. Its joint Lecturer and Student Sonex aircraft building effort is an example of a fundamental way in promoting its people-orientated, academic beliefs.
So far, the College had seen a run of three convocations with the attendance of notable Malaysian figures such as Datuk Saifuddin Abdullah (Deputy Minister of the Ministry of Higher Education), Dr. James Davos Mamit (Deputy Minister of Tourism) and the latest addition, Dr. Sheikh Muszaphar (Malaysia's very first astronaut) within the year 2010, 2011 and 2012 respectively.
