"For breakfast, I went simple. Whole wheat bread with peanut butter and jelly and orange juice, something like that. Maybe bacon and eggs if I woke up feeling great. For coffee, I utilized the SGA's free coffee machine!"
Coffee O' Clock
The Student Government Association has free coffee, tea and candy available in their on-campus office! You can find it in the Mori Hosseini Student Union.
"There's a large international population at Embry-Riddle. When I talked to fellow international students, they brought up stuff from my home country and kept me up to date on what's going on — all the slang words I'm not familiar with, all the trends and things like that."
"I think my favorite class [in my final semester] was AS 315, which was Robotics for UAS. The reason being is there's so much freedom! It was challenging, but we got to develop our own autonomous drone from start to finish. It really exposed me to project management and other skills I'll use in the future."
Looking Forward
Graduates from Embry-Riddle's drone programs find careers as flight test engineers, uncrewed systems analysts, project managers, field service engineers and more!
"For the Student Council, I led meetings, delegated tasks to members and looked for opportunities to fundraise. For example, there's this place a few minutes from campus called Seven Bubble Tea that was doing really well in business. I went to them personally and asked if they would offer Embry-Riddle discounts for students with their ID. We, in return, provided their marketing and exposure on campus."
"My favorite spot to study on campus was the quiet room in the library. It was a place where I could really collect my thoughts and separate myself from all the noise and chaos going on in the Student Union."
Hunt Library
The Jack R. Hunt Library on the Daytona Beach Campus provides private and collaborative study spaces for students to complete their homework or connect with their peers!
“"My friends and I liked to go out to eat and try foods from different countries. From Turkish to Mediterranean to Asian to Jamaican — there's a lot to offer around Orlando and Daytona. With no limitations on budget, my favorite was GyuKaku, which is a Japanese barbeque restaurant."
