What Florida Tech University Online Students
are Saying

“I have been practicing as a lawyer in California since 1988, with stops in Hong Kong and London. I chose to pursue a graduate degree at Florida Tech initially because of its reputation and affiliation with NASA. The accreditation and method of instruction were also important. My job involves a substantial amount of traveling so I needed a course of instruction that was flexible enough to accommodate my absences from the U.S. The online course was ideal since I could do the work while away or on the airplane. I even managed to make a few friends during the classes.“

“With my last time in college being over 10 years ago, I thought an MS in IT would give me a better understanding, not just of technology but of how technology fits within the larger business model. I was pleased to find an online program through a real, established brick-and-mortar school like Florida Tech. I particularly liked the flexibility of viewing lectures — during the week or on the weekend ­— without significantly impacting my time with my family.“

“What I really didn't expect from the program was the real-world experience of the instructors. Many of my instructors held executive positions in business industries. With that they brought value to the class that I may not have gotten from a career teacher.“

“I love attending classes online around my schedule. The program allows me to do it all: work full time and go to school without sacrificing my social life. And the fact that my employer's tuition assistance program covers the cost is the icing on the cake!“

“I'm getting a better understanding of the business side of the industry, as well as the technical side of information systems and systems management. I'm picking up new skills I can use on the job as I go and with my degree, I'm positioning myself for a bigger pay increase come review time.“
