Learning Modality Options

As an aviation specialist for the U.S. Navy, Rob Ward needed flexibility to pursue his bachelor’s degree in Technical Management. 

Bo Yang, an international student from China, wanted the option of taking mixed-modality classes and the ability to interact with other students while earning his bachelor’s degree in Aeronautics. 

Despite their different objectives, Ward and Yang found flexible learning modalities to fit their needs at Embry-Riddle’s Worldwide campus. Both students attend classes at the Orlando Campus, which offers live streaming lectures in a classroom setting with EagleVision Classroom, and online classes and live streaming directly to your home with EagleVision Home. The Worldwide campus also features locations offering instruction in a traditional classroom setting
