Episode 5 - Ryan Mazon - Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University
It’s often been said that when a person looks back over the course of a long life, the regrets they feel are not from things that they have done, but things they didn’t do. Oftentimes, that comes from not taking a chance early in life and doing something well off of the norm of the traditional career path. One school that allows individuals to take the risk of flight is Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University – originally an aviation school that trained pilots, the school now holds programs in engineering, space, security and intelligence as well as technology, business, and applied science. In total, seven current or former astronauts have graduated from Embry Riddle and the school boasts an alumni network of over 130,000 along with a faculty that has extensive industry experience. So how do you figure out what you want to do when the sky is quite literally the limit? We ask that question with Ryan Mazon as he helps students find their way to their desired star.
