More about Embry-Riddle's Electrical Engineering Program

Sign reading Electric Vehicle Charging Station with an arrow...

Embry-Riddle's electrical engineering program blends theory with hands-on application of the principles and practices involved in developing advanced electronics.

You’ll receive broad-based exposure to sophisticated electronics systems – exactly the kind of background sought by leading aerospace companies.

You'll have multiple opportunities to engage in internships, which can often lead to employment after graduation.

Our faculty has the highest academic credentials coupled with years of practical, professional experience.

As an undergraduate, you’ll have direct access to laboratories and facilities that are second to none, with state-of-the-art computing and simulation environments.

You'll have the opportunity to work with the operational control, communications, and power systems that provide key technical and practical experience demanded by top electrical engineering companies.

You'll develop the skills and knowledge that apply not only to careers in aerospace and avionics, but also to careers in many other technical industries.

You’ll join other students from Electrical Engineering, Aerospace and Software Engineering on a senior team project for which you will conceptualize, define, and build an aerospace system or subsystem. Projects like this belong on your resume. This is a simulation for team project development you'll experience in your future career.

Two Tracks to Choose From

The Aerospace Systems track concentrates on the special requirements of modern aircraft. You'll learn how the full spectrum of different aircraft components operate together as a large and complex system – and how each aircraft must also operate in harmony with other aircraft, air traffic management, navigation, and safety systems all at a reasonable cost.
The Telecommunications track- The Telecommunications track of the Electrical Engineering program provides preparation for students interested in the all-important communications field. Aerospace applications include extensive networks for air traffic management, airline operations, and space communications. Wired and wireless communications systems are covered.

In the senior year, you’ll work as part of a team with aerospace and software engineering majors to design a project, device, system or process incorporating engineering standards.
