Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University (ERAU) is a non-profit, non-sectarian, coeducational private university with a history dating back to the early days of aviation. The university serves culturally diverse students primarily motivated toward careers in aviation and aerospace. Residential campuses in Daytona Beach, Florida and Prescott, Arizona provide education in a traditional setting, while Embry-Riddle Worldwide, with over 130 centers throughout the United States and abroad, serves civilian and military working adults.

History

Early days

Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University began on December 17, 1925, when T. Higbee Embry and John Paul Riddle formed the Embry-Riddle Company at Lunken Airport in Cincinnati, Ohio. The company was financed by Embry, a wealthy aviation enthusiast who served as company president. Riddle was named general manager, and the two began to sell Waco Aircraft in Cincinnati. On December 17, 1927, the Embry-Riddle Company established Cincinnati's first regular air mail service, from Cincinnati to Chicago.

The Embry-Riddle Company also trained pilots as the Embry-Riddle Flying School. The school grew rapidly in 1928 and 1929, until the Embry-Riddle Company (now the Embry-Riddle Aviation Corporation) was merged with the Aviation Corporation (AVCO) of Delaware. AVCO phased out the Embry-Riddle Flying School in the fall of 1930. Shortly after, AVCO became American Airways (the predecessor of American Airlines), and the Embry-Riddle Company was gone.[4]

In 1939, Riddle was ready to get back into the business of training pilots. He contacted Embry, who had no interest in reentering a partnership with Riddle. Riddle, now living in Miami, Florida , found a partner in John G. McKay and his wife Isabel. The Embry-Riddle School of Aviation partnered with the University of Miami to provide flight training under the Civilian Pilot Training Program, increasing the number of pilots immediately proceeding World War II. The Embry-Riddle School of Aviation expanded rapidly, and soon moved to the former Fritz Hotel.

Riddle and McKay also formed the Riddle Aeronautical Institute at Carlstrom Field in early 1941 for the purpose of training pilots for the United States Army Air Corps. A separate division of Embry-Riddle provided technical training in maintenance and metal work. Following Pearl Harbor, Embry-Riddle and its various divisions expanded rapidly to train professionals during the war.

Embry-Riddle quickly exhausted the market for flight training. In 1944, McKay purchased Riddle's share of Embry-Riddle.[5]

Development into a university

Following the end of World War II, the McKays continued the business of training pilots. In 1963, Jack R. Hunt was named the first president of the Embry-Riddle Aeronautical Institute. ERAI continued the business of training pilots and mechanics in Miami until April 1965, when Hunt moved the campus to it's current home in Daytona Beach, Florida.

Embry-Riddle's move from Miami was accomplished by a group of Daytona Beach civic leaders known as the Committee of 100.[6] The school was packed into trucks and moved nearly overnight. Known as "Operation Bootstrap", the move was accomplished with the help of the Daytona Beach News-Journal, which supplied the trucks.

The Embry-Riddle Aeronautical Institute was accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools in 1968,[7] and was renamed Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University in 1970.

Hunt headed a large expansion of Embry-Riddle, including the purchase of a second campus in Prescott, Arizona in 1978. Embry-Riddle purchased the former campus of Prescott College, which closed abruptly in 1974 from financial hardship.[8] Hunt served as president until his death January 7, 1984.[9]

Hunt was followed by Lt. General Kenneth L. Tallman, who in his five years as president, formed Embry-Riddle's first graduate program. Tallman also added undergraduate degrees in Engineering Physics and Electrical Engineering. Current president John P. Johnson credits Tallman with moving ERAU from a technical school to a university.[10]

Embry-Riddle's third president was Dr. Steven M. Sliwa, who lead the University from 1991-1998. Sliwa oversaw the largest expansion in Embry-Riddle's history, developing new majors and capital expansion in excess of $100 million.[1] This includes the ICI Center (fieldhouse), Lehman Engineering and Technology Center, Capt. Willie Miller Instructional Center and Student Village.

Sliwa was followed by Dr. George H. Ebbs, who was president until November 2005. Ebbs' legacy is a mater of some contention, as many of his business decisions have been reversed over the past year for financial reasons.[11]

Following the September 11, 2001 attacks federal investigators thought that the school may have trained at least one of the aircraft hijackers. However, after a short investigation, ERAU was fully exonerated from any involvement in the flight training of the terrorists. Although a former student shared the same name as one of the hijackers, that former student was still alive and had no connections to Al-Qaeda.[12][13] Embry-Riddle's student newspaper, The Avion covered the events following the Sept. 11 attacks. An archive exists on their website.[14]

During his tenure as president, Ebbs expanded Embry-Riddle into non-traditional university projects. This included the now closed Commercial Airline Pilot Training program, or CAPT, which provided flight training to individuals looking to change careers. Ebbs also entered into a five-year contract with The United States Air Force Academy for Embry-Riddle to provide flight training for its cadets in 2002.[15]

Embry-Riddle's fifth president is Dr. John P. Johnson. Johnson was previously University Provost and Interim President. He was selected after a national search by the Board of Trustees on August 8, 2006.[16]

Christmas day tornado

On December 25, 2006 an F2 Tornado touched down in Daytona Beach, causing major damage to the Embry-Riddle campus. The tornado hit at approximately 1:45 p.m. The tornado then moved east, severely damaging the apartment complex Sutton Place, popular with university students.[17][18][19][20]

It appears that 50 of the university's 65 planes were damaged or destroyed. Spruance Hall, the main administrative building, sustained the worst damage. The roof was ripped off the building, and it appears likely that the building will be uninhabitable for some time. Other damaged buildings include the Advanced Flight Simulation Center, College of Aviation, John Paul Riddle Student Center, ICI Center and Jack R. Hunt Memorial Library. Damage includes broken windows, damaged roofs and missing concrete from the sides of buildings.[21]

The university is working with the Cessna Aircraft Company to obtain new single-engine Cessna 172s like the ones damaged in the tornado. Also damaged in the storm were Piper Arrows and Piper Seminoles, manufactured by the New Piper Aircraft Company. Embry-Riddle is working with Piper to obtain new planes as well.

Portable classrooms, vacant space at the temporary Worldwide Campus headquarters or space at Daytona Beach Community College may be used to temporary replace the damaged buildings.[22]

Daily updates are being posted on the university website (see infobox above).

Costs

Tuition for first year students at either residental campus is $12,210 per semester. Room and board is estimated at $3,500 per semester. Flight training and personal expenses are in addition to these costs.[23]

Embry-Riddle students graduate with the highest student debt in the country.[24][25] Of the Daytona Beach graduating class of 2005, 68% of student graduated with debt, and the average debt among those students was $52,276.[26]

Available degrees

Embry-Riddle's residential campuses in Daytona Beach and Prescott campuses offer the following degrees:

Undergraduate degrees available at the Daytona Beach Campus Undergraduate degrees available at the Prescott Campus
Graduate degrees available at the Daytona Beach Campus Graduate degree available at the Prescott Campus
  • Safety Science

Daytona Beach, Florida campus

The Wright Flyer statue is the centerpiece of the Daytona Beach campus. The Jack. R. Hunt Memorial Library is visible in the background.

This 178 acre (720,000 m²) site has been the home to Embry-Riddle since 1965. Built adjacent to the Daytona Beach International Airport, the campus has easy access for flight training. The main campus consists of an aviation complex, acedemic quad and residence halls surrounding the student center and Jack R. Hunt Aviatior Park. Athletic facilities are located across Clyde Morris Blvd., ancored by the ICI Center.

The university ownes 77 acres directly south of the main campus that it plans to develop into a research park.[citation needed] An upper classman residence, the Chanute Complex, is approximately two miles south of the main campus.

Academic buildings

Lehman Engineering and Technology Center

The Lehman Engineering and Technology Center

Engineering classes and facilities (such as the Thermojet solid model printer, Computational Fluid Dynamics, 128-node Beowulf cluster and wind tunnels) are concentrated in the Lehman Engineering and Technology Center, built in 1995 to facilitate hands-on training in various engineering practices. The three-story facility also includes a number of classrooms and offices for each department within the College of Engineering. The building was built in part with a $12.5 million congressional appropration in 1994. The building is named for former Florida congressional represenative Bill Lehman.[27] There are well over 180 software titles available to faculty and students in two computer labs within the Lehman Building, including CATIA, Nastran, Pro/ENGINEER, and Matlab.

Aviation Complex

The Aviation Complex includes the College of Aviation (COA) building, Gill Robb Wilson Flight Complex and the Advanced Flight Simulation Center.

The COA provides a conducive learning environment for those in the aeronautical sciences as well as the air traffic, meteorology, safety, homeland security and dispatch programs. Opened in 2002, the COA building houses FAA testing facilities, a flight tutoring lab, weather labs, a Spatial disorientation simulator, Air safety lab, TRACON and enroute air traffic control simulators as well as a voice-responsive control tower simulator.

The Gill Robb Wilson Flight Complex (GRW) is the home to the flight department. It houses flight dispatch, flight records, administrative offices, instructor pilot offices and several classrooms. The three buildings that make up the GRW are among the oldest on campus.

The Advanced Flight Simulation Center (AFSC) houses 12 simulators: seven level-six Cessna 172 simulators, three level-six Piper Seminole simulators, one Bombardier Canadair Regional Jet (CRJ) level-six simulator and one full-motion MD-90 simulator. The ASFC also houses a number of classrooms and offics.

Other academic buildings

Most degree-independent courses are held in the Lindbergh Center, a group of small hexagonal buildings with the designations A, B, C, E and W (for this reason it they are more commonly referred to as the "alphabet soup" by faculty and students).

The 49,000-square-foot Jack R. Hunt Memorial Library (JRHML) is the on campus library conatins over 230,000 volumes.[23] The library is noted for having the world's largest collection of NASA and NACA documents as well as a very extensive aviation media collection. NASA personnel have frequently consulted the JRHML for its highly comprehensive collection of NASA documents, most importantly, during the Space Shuttle Columbia disaster investigation.

The Capt. Willie Miller Instructional Center contains classrooms and an auditorium for large lectures, presentations or performances.

Residences

Total student capacity is 1,928 students. The Fall 2006 Semester saw a large influx of new students of approximately 1400, 118% of Freshman housing capacity. Housing accommodated those students by housing fewer upperclassmen, placing students in rooms as students in the other halls dropped, and, according to the Assistant Director of Residence Life, successfully placed all students. All Daytona Beach residence halls feature wireless internet.

In July of 2006, ground was broken on the newest residence hall for the campus. This four-story structure will house freshmen and upperclassmen, and is slated to be completed in time for the fall 2007 semester. It will hold 256 residents in total, but add only 90 new residency slots. Rooms in McKay Hall will move from tripple to double occupancy.[28]

Student Village

Student Village

Over 1,000 students take up residence on-campus in the $29 million Student Village residence complex on the north edge of campus. Four residence halls as well as two food venures, housing offices and the office of the Embry-Riddle Resident Student Association (E.R.R.S.A.) are contained within the Student Village. The Residential Network (ResNet) technical support lab for student-owned computers is also located there.[29] The residence halls in the Student Village are Adams Hall, Wood Hall, O'Connor Hall and Stimpson Hall. Adams and Wood are both freshmen halls. Two residents reside in each room, and two rooms adjoin to form a suite with a shared bathroom.[30][31] O'Connor provides apartment-style living for upperclassmen residents. In O'Connor, two residents share a room, and four rooms form a suite for a total of 8 residents per suite. Occupants of a suite share two bathrooms, a common room and a kitchen area.[32] Stimpson provides appartment-style living for upperclassman as well. There are two variations of rooms in Stimpson. One style has a very large room and one smaller room. The other style has two similar moderate-sized rooms and a smaller room. Both of these styles accommodate two residents and have a bathroom and kitchen area.[33]

Doolittle Hall

Doolittle Hall

Doolittle Hall (Known to students as "The Rock" due to the second layer of bricks added during renovations, creating outer walls two bricks thick.[citation needed]), a concrete and cinder block building in the shape a "T", houses freshmen. Doolittle has a more traditional living experience for Embry-Riddle freshmen. Freshmen are housed two to a room, with a common bathroom not adjoining their room. Four separate rooms share this common bathroom. There are volleyball courts on the northwest and southeast sides.[34]

McKay Hall

McKay Hall

McKay Hall houses all classes of students. Three freshmen or two upperclassmen students are assigned to each room. Current plans are to make all rooms two students only with the opening of a new Residence Hall in 2007. Each suite is composed of two rooms joined in a "common area." McKay is unique in that it is the only residence hall on campus that opens to the outside.[35] At one time McKay Hall resembled an old roadside hotel, and is often the butt of jokes among the students that live there. In 2006 McKay Hall while underwent a major face-lift. Rooms now feature new floors, remodeled bathrooms and fresh paint.

Student facilities

Student make regular use of the John Paul Riddle Student Center, located in the center of campus. The student center includes two dining facilites, offices for the Student Government Association, Touch-N-Go Productions (campus entertainment), greek life, The Avion Newspaper and Eagles FM. Many university offices, such as campus safety and the Dean of Student's office, are also housed in the student center. Adjoined to the student center is the university bookstore, mailroom and admissions office.

Other student facilities include the 5,300-square-foot Interfaith Chappel, ICI Center gym and weight room, outdoor pool and intramural sports fields.

A two-story, 12,500-square-foot fitness center is under construction, and is expected to open in late 2007.

Student body

Embry-Riddle's Daytona Beach Campus total Fall 2006 enrollment at the Daytona Beach Campus is 4863; 4473 undergraduate and 390 graduate students. 84% are male and 16% are female. International students make up 8% of the Daytona Beach Campus's undergraduate enrollment.[36][3] Aviation interests characterize most of the student body, though particularly among the aerospace engineering and aeronautical science majors. Daytona Beach has over 130 student organizations, including 10 fraternities and three sororities. Other prominent student organizations include the Eagles Flight Team, which competes in the National Intercollegiate Flying Association, the Eagles Sport Avaition Club, and the Student Government Association.

Distinguished programs

Flight training and aerospace engineering are the two most popular majors on the Daytona Beach campus. Embry-Riddle Daytona Beach's aerospace engineering program ranks number one in the U.S. News & World Report college rankings of aerospace engineering degree schools without a Ph.D. program.[2] Embry-Riddle has received this honor every year since the category was introduced in 2001.[37] In 2006 the University announced plan to add a Ph.D. program in Aerospace Engineering.[38][39]

Embry-Riddle's Daytona Beach campus has the second most extensive ROTC programs in the nation, following Texas A&M,[citation needed] and the largest Air Force ROTC program.[40] The ROTC program frequently wins national competitions.[41][42][43]

A newer engineering physics program exists at ERAU Daytona Beach, which is currently the largest undergraduate engineering physics program in the country and the only one specializing in the aerospace environment.[44]

Athletics

The Daytona Beach Campus sponsors 14 intercollegiate sports. The Eagles are members of the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics Region XIV and compete in the Florida Sun Conference. Embry-Riddle hosted the 2005 and 2006 NAIA Men's Soccer Championships. The Embry-Riddle Soccer Stadium was upgraded in 2005 specifically to host the event, and can seat 1,000 fans.[45] Embry-Riddle's athletics are directed by basketball head-coach Steve Ridder. On October 2, 2006, Ridder was named NAIA National Athletic Director of the Year.[46] Ridder led the school to its only national title in any sport in 2000, in basketball.

Prescott, Arizona campus

Embry-Riddle's second residential campus is in Prescott, Arizona. The 539-acre campus is located approximately 3 miles from Ernest A. Love Field, which also serves as Prescott's airport.

In Fall 2006, the Prescott Campus had 1,630 undergraduate students and 44 graduate students enrolled. The Prescott Campus has students from numerous states, as well as 25 different countries.

Academic buildings

In the beginning of the 2005 spring semester, the new Academic Complex opened. This facility houses offices for most of the faculty, in addition to a number of smaller classrooms, two lecture halls, and several computer labs. Other notable buildings include the King Engineering Center, where most of the Electrical Engineering and Computer Engineering classes occur. There is also a Wind Tunnel Laboratory that is currently being expanded. For the fall 2006 semester, the new Aerospace Experimentation and Fabrication Building (AXFAB) opened.

Residences

There are three student residence areas on the Prescott Campus. All residence halls are co-ed, however roommates and suitemates are always of the same gender.

Thumb Butte

The Thumb Butte Complex features four single-story halls and is for freshmen who are participating in the Live, Learn, Lead (L^3) Program only. Two students share each room, and each room has its own bathroom. Each room also comes with a minifridge. There is a common lounge for each hall with a TV and a microwave.

Mingus Mountain

The Mingus Mountain Complex features five three-story halls arranged in 3 room suite configurations. Each suite contains three bedrooms, two bathrooms, and a lounge. Two students share each bedroom, meaning that six people share each suite. Each room and lounge has a door that opens outside, as well as an interior door that opens to the rest of the suite. Each lounge comes with a micro-fridge (microwave and mini-fridge) unit.

Village

The Village Complex features five halls and is for upperclassmen only (with the exception of hall 7, in which incoming freshmen live if they are participating in the "Live, Learn, Lead," program). There are two different configurations for halls in the Village Complex:

  • One configuration is two bedrooms with an adjoining bathroom. Each bedroom has a large closet area and a vanity with a sink and comes with a mini-fridge. There is a common kitchen with a stove-top, oven, microwave, sink, and full-size fridge for each floor of students to share. There is also a common lounge on each floor with dry erase boards and game tables.
  • The second configuration for halls in the Village is the apartment configuration. Each apartment contains two bedrooms, a bathroom, a lounge, and a kitchen area. The kitchen in each room features a stove-top and microwave, as well as a full-size refrigerator and sink. There is a common kitchen for each floor of the hall which has an oven. There is also a common lounge for each floor.

Student body

ERAU's total Fall 2006 undergraduate enrollment at the Prescott Campus was 1,630 students 17% of which were female. International students make up 3% of the Prescott Campus's undergraduate enrollment. Aviation interests characterize most of the student body, though particularly among the aerospace engineering and aeronautical science majors, the latter of which are in the flight-training program.

Distinguished programs

The Prescott Campus has the only Global Security and Intelligence Studies program in the country. This degree program focuses on important global issues such as terrorism, information warfare, transportation security, illicit trafficking networks, corporate security, population dislocations, natural disasters, widespread epidemics, international crime, and homeland security. The Prescott Campus also offers a Master's degree program in Safety Science, and began to offer a bachelor's degree in fall 2006. Classes are typically small, with even the lowest level freshman courses having 20 to 30 students at most.

National Intercollegiate Flying Association (NIFA) competitive flight team. Prescott's Golden Eagles Flight Team has won the regional championship for the past 19 years straight, and also won the national championship in 1993, 1997, 1999, 2003, and 2005.
