Embry-Riddle Asia Unveils New Campus and Training Center at Seletar Aerospace Park

Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University’s Asia Campus has officially relocated to a new state-of-the-art training center at Seletar Aerospace Park in Singapore. The move solidifies Embry-Riddle's commitment to Singapore's aviation/aerospace ecosystem and significantly expands its educational and training offerings. The new facility is co-located with Air 7 Asia, fostering collaboration and synergy within the aerospace community.

“We are extremely proud to have a prominent presence at the Seletar Aerospace Park in Singapore,” said Dr. John R. Watret, FRAeS, chancellor of Embry-Riddle’s Worldwide Campus. "This strategic location is a thriving aviation and aerospace ecosystem and is the ideal home for Embry-Riddle Asia.
