Student Engagement & Student Union

OUR MISSION:
The Department of Student Engagement and Student Union fosters connection, belonging, and leadership through transformative experiences that empower students to build community, discover purpose, and thrive at Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University. Through student organizations, campus traditions, leadership development, orientation, family engagement, and inclusive gathering spaces, we cultivate a vibrant campus where every student can find connection and make an impact.

Registered Student Organizations

The Department of Student Engagement proudly supports over 120 diverse student organizations. We have academic and professional groups; service groups; social and hobby groups; spiritual and cultural groups; and an array of other miscellaneous groups. All groups are created, organized, and run by the students and open to the campus community. Our groups provide a lot of ways you can get involved outside of their academics, whether you want to be entertained and have fun or want to build your skills.

Fraternity and Sorority Life

A fraternity or sorority provides an opportunity to enhance collegiate life experiences through actively integrated event planning, governance, and membership recruitment. It's a home away from home, a place to meet lifelong friends, a leadership opportunity unlike any other, a chance to network, and a place to find yourself.

LEAD Program

The LEAD program is organized by the Department of Student Engagement to provide programming, workshops, and resources to student leaders that enhance and supplement their growth in community, personal, and professional leadership.

New Student Orientation

Our team of current student leaders will be on campus during Orientation to help guide you through Orientation at Embry-Riddle. New students will be placed together in groups led by an Orientation Leader. These groups will get together so that students can meet new people, get questions answered and have fun.

Parent & Family Programs

Parents and families are invited to sign up for the Embry Riddle Parent and Family Experience, and exclusive website designed to keep them connected to the campus and university community! We're also looking forward to seeing everyone on campus for Parent and Family Weekend in the Spring!
