Florida Institute of Technology (Florida Tech)

Florida Tech was founded in 1958 as Brevard Engineering College. It all started as an idea in the mind of Jerome P. Keuper, a visionary physicist working at Cape Canaveral (now NASA – Kennedy Space Center). Florida Tech’s mission is to provide high-quality education to a culturally diverse student body in order to prepare students for entering the global workforce seeking higher-education opportunities and serving within their communities.
