About the company
Pennsylvania State University's State College Regional Airport Division, doing business as University Park Airport, is a tax-exempt non-profit airport operator functioning as a division of Penn State (the parent 1862 Land Grant institution) that receives federal grants for airport infrastructure modernization and operations, with one recent prime contract for a supersonic flight demonstration. The division operates without SBA set-aside designations and competes full-and-open for federal funding.
The airport's federal activity centers on Federal Aviation Administration infrastructure grants under the Airport Improvement Program (CFDA 20.106) and Airport Infrastructure Grants program (CFDA 20.117), which fund runway, taxiway, and facility rehabilitation; equipment acquisition and replacement; and terminal improvements at University Park Airport in State College, Pennsylvania. Representative grant work includes a $3.26 million FAA project grant (September 2024) for final-phase construction of 380 feet of Taxiway A rehabilitation; a $6.05 million FAA project grant (September 2023) for the sixth phase of 450 feet of Taxiway A rehabilitation; a $657,082 FAA project grant (June 2025) for Phase 2 design of two new passenger boarding bridges; a $483,407 FAA project grant (May 2026) for runway lighting reconstruction design; and a $286,660 FAA project grant (July 2026) for Phase 2 design work on runway rehabilitation to maintain pavement integrity and extend useful life. The division also received American Rescue Plan Act economic assistance totaling approximately $2.74 million through December 2025 for pandemic-related airport operations, personnel, cleaning, and debt service support.
All 27 FAA Eastern Region grants and 20 FAA headquarter-level grants in the recent footprint address airport facility and infrastructure needs specific to State College. Beyond FAA programs, the division holds one definitive contract awarded by the Department of Transportation Headquarters on September 24, 2026, with a firm fixed price of $130,180.03 to fund a supersonic MCO flight demonstration in partnership with Penn State, completing September 22, 2027. The division also subcontracts to CACI Inc. Federal as a services provider on a Naval Underscore Warfare Center engineering and modernization operations analysis engagement (awarded January 2025). Activity has been stable in recent years—four awards in 2022, three in 2023, one in 2024, five in 2025, and four in 2026—with three awards completing within the next twenty-four months. The division's federal footprint reflects a focused mission: airport infrastructure stewardship and federal research partnership rather than competitive contracting across multiple customer agencies or vehicles.
