Embry–Riddle Aeronautical University (ERAU) is globally recognized for its specialized focus on aviation and aerospace education. While it does not feature in general university rankings like QS or Times Higher Education, it holds a unique position in niche rankings.

Its worldwide reputation stems from industry partnerships and research contributions, making it a top choice for aviation-related fields. However, its absence from broader rankings reflects its specialized nature rather than academic quality.
