Headquarters for the pioneering aviation institution, just minutes from the ocean

Private Small Urban Beach Coastal Ocean Eagles

Founded in 1926, Embry Riddle Aeronautical University has a proud history as the oldest university in the world with a core curriculum focused specifically on aviation. The university offers degrees at every level, with a major emphasis on programs related to aviation maintenance, air traffic management, aeronautical science, and similar subjects.

Embry Riddle’s Daytona Beach campus sits adjacent to Daytona Beach international Airport, just minutes from the city’s famous oceanfront attractions. The beach itself is certainly one of the most popular hangouts for the college crowd, including the boardwalk, the Ocean Center, and the Main Street nightlife.
