The MIAT College of Technology (formally Michigan Institute of Aviation and Technology) is a private for-profit technical school with locations in Canton, Michigan and Houston, Texas. The college is a certified Federal Aviation Administration Part 147 school for aircraft maintenance that and also offers Energy Technology and Transportation Dispatch programs. The school was originally the Detroit Institute of Aeronautics, which was later renamed the Michigan Institute of Aeronautics. Around 2005, due to an increased demand for technical careers outside of aviation, the school expanded its curriculum to include Energy Technology and Global Logistics & Dispatch, and became known as the Michigan Institute of Aviation and Technology. The school was purchased by Universal Technical Institute (UTI) in November of 2021. In 2023, UTI announced that MIAT-Houston would be consolidated with UTI-Houston given their close proximity.
