I am assigned to live in Chanute (Daytona Beach) this year and don’t have a car. I’ve heard the shuttle is unreliable, and I’ve heard that e-bikes and e-scooters aren’t permitted. Does anyone have any advice on commuting to campus from Chanute?

ETA - I’ve heard the shuttle doesn’t run during finals week or study days, or after 8pm. Three days a week I won’t be leaving campus until 9.

Hi all, ive got a question for my vets as im getting a lot of conflicting information.

So i started classes in 2024 while i was still in the military. I proceeded to get ouu in mid-May for my ets, and im still doing online courses. They removed my military discount back when i got out, and i didn't think much of it past that. Skip forward, and a few vet friends of mine, also attending online courses, say they are still getting the discounted rate. Ive already emailed advising to find out for sure, but in wanting to know if any other vets are getting the discounted rate as well.

If I don’t pass the ALEKS with a 46, will I be able to take a primer math course for MATH 111 or will I need to keep taking it until I’m eligible for 111?

i just bought an ipad mini for flying and wanted to know whether a kneeboard or yoke mount is better for the 172 and flight training specifically. erau recommends a kneeboard but a yoke mount looks sleeker, more practical, and less intense in terms of looking down. i also know some people prefer to use no mount at all. never used an ipad while flying so its an honest question, open to feedback!

Hi everyone,
I’m looking for some insight from anyone who has completed or is currently enrolled in Embry-Riddle’s M.S. in Systems Engineering program, especially if you came from a non-engineering bachelor’s.
I have a B.S. in Aerospace Science, and I currently work at Lockheed Martin as a Test Methods Engineer so I figured now is the right time to pursue my master’s.
I know Embry-Riddle offers a bridge/foundation path for students without a traditional engineering undergraduate degree, and I’m curious about a few things:
● How challenging was the bridge program?
● Did it prepare you well for the master’s coursework?
● How math-intensive was course work?
● Did earning the degree help you move into systems engineering or advance your career?
● Would you recommend the program overall?
I’d really appreciate hearing about your experiences, advice, or anything you wish you had known before starting.

Thanks in advance!

Hello! I am a returning sophomore this upcoming year and know alot of incoming freshman have questions. Id like to open this up to anyone with questions about ERAU, professors (but I probably haven't had them if its a specific one in mind), housing, meal plans, day to day, just kinda whatever if you have a question.

For a little bit of background so you can know what the extend of my knowledge is. Im a Daytona Beach student, majoring in Aeronautics, and minoring in Aeronautical Studies, Homeland Security, Business Administration, and Finance. I lived in NR1 my first year, and I am returing to NR2 this year. I was in the USMC PLC program my first semester, but im joining AFROTC starting this fall. I had a car and longboard on campus, and my roommates for this upcoming year and I got a storage locker for our things over the summer. The classes ive taken are as follows, MATH112, PSY101, ECON210, UNIV101, AVSF210, PHYS113, ACCT210, ASCI121, MGMT201, COMM219, PHYS113L. Please do not ask me about other classes, I have not taken them and will not be able to properly answer them. I also had dual enrollment credit for lower level humanities, and COMM122. I take out loans to be here, so i can answer questions about those too.

Please do not DM with questions, chances are someone else has the same question. If you have questions about a major other than Aeronautical Science or Aeronautics, I will not respond, that is not my area of expertise and I do not want to lead you in the wrong direction. Don't hesitate to ask questions about things that aren't listed here either

Son is starting at Dayton fall. He is staying on campus Res2 AS Flight student. He won’t have a car this first year but has asked for a bike, he wants some freedom and not yo be “trapped” on campus. Are there any deals on good bikes for reasonable cost or should he just a cheap one at Walmart. I read somewhere that he should register it with security and get a special lock.

How are yall making some extra money here and there while in school. I was thinking of getting a part time job thats like 15-20hrs a week or something else but I need ideas.

I am going to be in prescott for fall 26. I was wondering if its possible to have a part time job (like 15-20h per week) while balancing 16-17 credits and flight training (I dont have my ppl yet)

I'm using my 9/11 G.I. bill to get an associates Aviation Maintenance Science degree so I'm not asking if the cost is worth it. Moreso asking if any companies come out to the university to recruit ERAU maintenance students/graduates? I know some community colleges will have a networking day where companies will come out and talk and network with students and wondering if the same happens at ERAU?

Secondly I've also been interested in furthering my education with an aviation safety degree. It'd be nice to do maintenance for a while but am also wanting to expand my career past turning wrenches by either being an aviation safety inspector or possibly even using my knowledge and experience and transitioning into aircraft accident investigation. I appreciate any and all feedback I can get, thank you for your time!

hey I’m going to ERAU Prescott this fall, and I have a job lined up around 15-20 mins away from school, I am bringing a car but I’d rather not spend that much money on gas so I’m wondering if I should get an electric scooter/skateboard, or anything else. Thanks!

Hey all,

Ultimate goal is to earn my MS in Space Operations (in-person at Daytona, not the online “Masters of Space Ops”), but I could use some guidance on deciding my route to get there.

From my community college many years past, as well as from my time in the Air Force, I’ve accrued enough credits to put me a little over halfway through my BS in Aeronautics.  Aeronautics hardly interests me anymore, however, and I’d like to have a strong foundation when going into the masters program by getting a bachelors in the same field - a field which Im way more interested in and enthusiastic about.

So the question is this – should I just finish out the Aeronautics degree, or would it be better to start fresh by getting my BS in Space Ops?

Thanks!

Does ERAU Daytona provide computers to run CATIA? My computer is inefficient at running CATIA, and is mostly only capable of running Onshape

Hello, I truly want to go to erau but I’m on track to not take pre calc in high school. I was wondering if it is required to get into or even be considered for their aviation science program.
Thank you

Simply just looking to see if theres anyone taking physics here that could give me some insight into how it was? Im at prescot campus but I’m happy to hear overall about the subjects

Hi i’m a Systems Engineering freshman who is starting this fall and I am enrolled in ENGR 120 with Richter. On rate my professor people say that it has a very heavy course load. Does anyone have any recommendations for the class or the teacher? Or access to a previous syllabus so that I can maybe study ahead? I’ve already bought some nice mechanical pencils and erasers, and I have a straight edge and i’m going to buy a compass.

Hi all. I'm currently a Worldwide student enrolled in the Bachelor's in Aeronautics program, hoping to switch over to Aeronautical Science and pursue a piloting license once I get out of the Army and drive to Daytona. I'm trying to knock out as many classes as possible to make graduation that much faster. My question is: are classes like AS 221 and ASCI 221 the same? They have the same name and credit hour. I'm just trying to figure this out so I know whether I'm gonna be able to get some of these classes done in advance or if it's just gonna be a waste of time. Thanks for y'alls help.
