Northrop Rice Advanced Institute of Technology
Northrop University and Northrop Institute of Technology were separate schools under the same administration. Northrop University offered the degree programs, and Northrop Institute of Technology offered the airframe and power plant certification courses. The Northrop Institute of Technology was acquired by Rice Aviation shortly after Northrop closed and eventually became Northrop Rice USA, Inc (NRUSA). Northrop Rice USA created what is now the Northrop Rice Advanced Institute of Technology which continues to operate in the old Northrop Institute of Technology and Northrop University facilities.
