What Makes Embry-Riddle Special

World's Largest Aviation University

Embry-Riddle is the only fully accredited aviation-focused university in the world. With over 7,000 students on the Daytona Beach campus and 2,500 in Prescott, it produces more aviation graduates than any other institution on Earth.

FAA-Approved Training

Every flight program at Embry-Riddle meets or exceeds FAA Part 141 standards. Graduates receive reduced hour requirements for ATP certification — a significant advantage when competing for airline jobs.

Aerospace Engineering Excellence

Beyond pilot training, Embry-Riddle's aerospace engineering program is ranked among the best in the nation. Students design, build, and fly aircraft and spacecraft, with hands-on projects that rival graduate-level research at other universities.

Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS)

Embry-Riddle was one of the first universities to offer a degree in Unmanned Aircraft Systems. Their UAS program covers drone design, operation, and regulation — preparing students for the fastest-growing sector in aviation.
