How Your Gifts Inspire Students

Committed, caring, capable—those are the hallmarks of an Embry-Riddle graduate. The university takes pride in fulfilling its mission to produce leaders for our aeronautical industries and for the global community.

Students receive not only the skills and confidence they need to succeed professionally but also are inspired to grow personally through community service, ROTC, and other leadership development programs, co-ops, and internships.

Your gift to Embry-Riddle will provide many additional opportunities for our students:

• Scholarships and other forms of financial aid will allow deserving, talented students to begin or complete their studies. (Read how one student is using scholarships to reach her goals.) Some motivated students who elect flight training, for example, discover they face costs that force them to drop out of the program.
• Students will be able to participate in research that solves "real-world" challenges such as globally disseminating engineering expertise. (Read about one student's experience working on the design of a hybrid formula car.)
• Embry-Riddle will be able to buy new equipment that provides hands-on training. Duplicating technologies used by industry is critical for our students. (Read how Lockheed Martin is helping students pursue robotics research.)
• The university will have the opportunity to upgrade facilities and create an environment where "the teachable moment" can occur anywhere, anytime. (See how the Emil Buehler Perpetual Trust is helping Embry-Riddle build a state-of-the-art maintenance science building.)
• Innovative programs will teach students to think creatively and lead teams to address growing concerns around such issues as airport operations, flight information systems, and the guidance of spacecraft in the near-Earth environment. (Find out more about Embry-Riddle's two first-ever Ph.D programs in Aviation and Engineering/Space Physics.)

Committed, caring, capable, comprehensive—Embry-Riddle is fully engaged in its mission to provide a complete education that shapes the minds and characters of the professionals who will shape the future of aviation and aerospace.
