Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University (ERAU) is an independent, non-sectarian, non-profit, coeducational university with a history dating back to the early days of aviation. The university serves culturally diverse students primarily motivated toward careers in aviation and aerospace. Residential campuses in Daytona Beach, Florida and Prescott, Arizona, provide education in a traditional setting, while an extended campus with centers throughout the United States and abroad serves civilian and military working adults.
Following the September 11, 2001 attacks investigators believed that the school trained at least one of the aircraft hijackers involved. Shortly thereafter ERAU was fully exonerated from any involvement in the flight training of the terrorists.
