Overview

Program Description The only undergraduate degree of its kind in the United States of America, the Bachelor of Science in Aerospace Physiology blends aerospace with life science and leverages Embry-Riddle’s many strengths to take advantage of emerging opportunities in space and biomedicine. Students study how extreme environments influence biological systems, including such things as the impacts of microgravity and radiation. The extensive curriculum prepares them for a variety of opportunities, not only in the medical fields but also in research and development to support the aerospace industry’s need for expertise in behavioral neuroscience, stress and fatigue, nutritional biochemistry, pharmacotherapeutics, health and human performance, genomic expression, and the human microbiome, among others. The courses, taught by faculty with vast real-world experience in aerospace and physiology, ensure students have the breadth of knowledge they need, thanks to a combination of subjects that include data analysis, human factors and performance, molecular and cellular biology, and aviation. In addition to the classwork, groundbreaking partnerships with area hospitals allow Aerospace Physiology students to experience hands-on clinical rotations that will expose them to latest in medical innovations, treatment techniques and cutting-edge research. Aerospace Physiology is a growing field, creating career opportunities that range from the military and NASA to commercial space and private sector healthcare. Students who graduate from this unique program are perfectly positioned to fill these roles or go on to pursue post-graduate degrees.

About the Institution

The Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University of today is the product of a long and prestigious history. In 1925, pilot John Paul Riddle met entrepreneur T. Higbee Embry, and together, they formed the Embry-Riddle Company to teach the adventurous to fly. This partnership was the beginning of a vision that has produced more than 140,000 alumni who drive innovation and keep the aerospace and related industries running safely and productively. By 1951, the school was named Embry-Riddle International School of Aviation, and it was living up to the moniker, as its reputation was expanding globally as st...
