VALUE IN EXPERIENTIAL LEARNING

Kyle almost majored in music education at UA, but the engineering progress made by SpaceX excited his interest in another field — aerospace engineering. And now he feels confident for the next step in his career at Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University, thanks in part to the experiential learning opportunities he gained at UA.
