History{{Main|Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University#History}}Embry-Riddle began in 1925 as the Embry-Riddle Company, an aircraft dealer, and airmail provider, founded by Talton Higbee Embry and John Paul Riddle in Cincinnati, Ohio. Embry-Riddle was eventually incorporated into what is now American Airlines, before reforming during the buildup to World War II in Miami, Florida as the Embry-Riddle School of Aviation, and later, the Embry-Riddle Aeronautical Institute. Embry-Riddle moved to Daytona Beach, Florida in 1965 and was renamed Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University in 1970. Embry-Riddle opened its second campus in Prescott, Arizona in 1978.[3] Embry-Riddle purchased the former campus of Prescott College, which closed abruptly in 1974 from financial hardship.[4] CampusThe {{convert|539|acre|km2|adj=on}} campus is located among Arizona's Bradshaw Mountain Range approximately {{convert|3|mi|km}} from Prescott's airport, Ernest A.

The Composites Lab enables students to fabricate composite parts and the Rapid Prototyping Lab contains stereo-lithography printers for student use. The King Engineering and Technology Center is where most of the Electrical Engineering and Computer Engineering classes occur. This building contains a Design Suite for Autonomous Vehicles and Freshman Engineering Lab which allow students to build robots, lighter-than-air vehicles, and more. The Control Theory Lab, Digital Circuits Lab, and Linear Circuits Lab all give students the hands-on experience in electronics. The Power Lab lets students design, fabricate, and test power electronics, and the Senior Design Suite is a place for students to work on their capstone projects. The Tracy Doryland Wind Tunnel Laboratory contains an Aerodynamics laboratory with four wind tunnels for undergraduate students' use. The Thermal/Fluid Laboratory contains a water tunnel to demonstrate fluid flow. The Propulsion Lab has a micro-turbojet which is used to study advanced propulsion. The STEM education center and the Jim and Linda Lee Planetarium, which is the only planetarium in Arizona that is north of Phoenix, is used as a community outreach tool that houses state of the art lab space that is used by students as well as local middle and high school students in order to promote STEM related education.
