Embry-Riddle Earns Ninth Consecutive Title as Great College to Work For

For the ninth straight year, Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University has been selected as one of the Great Colleges to Work For by The Chronicle of Higher Education.

In this year’s survey of 236 institutions, 85 schools earned the title of Great College to Work For. In addition, Embry-Riddle was one of only 42 institutions recognized nationwide as an Honor Roll Institution that excels in multiple categories focused on leadership, careers, compensation and the workplace. 

“Our ninth consecutive ranking as one of the Great Colleges to Work For is a tribute to our entire staff and faculty,” said University President Dr. P. Barry Butler. “I am particularly proud that this recognition comes during a period when enrollment is at an all-time high, significant construction has been underway on both campuses and we are expanding our research park. Growth brings new challenges. However, our focus on student success is constant. What we do for students is a big part of what makes Embry-Riddle a rewarding place to work and a better place to learn.”

The rankings are based on a two-part methodology: an institutional audit that captured demographics and workplace policies from each institution and a survey administered to faculty, administrators and professional support staff. The primary factor in deciding whether an institution receives recognition is employee feedback.
