  • Florida Institute of Technology er et privat, ikke-kommersielt universitet i Melbourne i delstaten Florida i USA. Det ble grunnlagt i 1958 som Brevard Engineering College. Lokalene til University of Melbourne ble kjøpt i 1961, og i 1966 fikk FITech sitt nåværende navn - Florida Institute of Technology. Den siste konsoliderte campusen ble flyttet fra Jensen Beach til dagens hovedcampus i 1986 - med opprettelsen av Department of Marine and Environmental Sciences(DMES). De største colleges er: College of Engineering - 1 840 studenter (36 %) - Department of Marine and Environmental Sciences - Florida Tech Hydrogen Center College of Science - 715 studenter (14 %) - Physics/Space Sciences Department har eget observatorium College of Aeronautics - 335 studenter (7 %) - School of Aeronautics College of Psychology and Liberal Arts - 377 studenter (7 %) College of Business - 258 studenter (5 %) University College - 1 472 studenter (29 %) Utenom colleges - 101 studenter (2 %) Ved FITech var det i 2006 ialt 4 741 studenter fra 100 ulike land, opp til doktorgradsnivå (Ph. D), og skolepengene dette året var US$ 27 540. Over halvparten av studentene studerer ingeniørfag eller teoretiske realfag. Forskningsinstituttene ved FITech utgjøres av: Institute for Energy Systems, Intellectual Property, Institute for Computing and Information Systems, Institute for Materials Science and Nanotechnology, National Center for Hydrogen Research, Institute for Biological and Biomedical Sciences, National Center for Small Business Information, Institute for Marine Research Private donasjoner og gaver til forskningen ved FITech ligegr betydelig udner nivået for Virginia Tech, Stevens Tech, GGeorgia Tech og MIT, antakelig på grunn av Florida Tech's korte historie. Det er sentralt i universitetets strategi å øke de private donasjonene til forskning. Biblioteket The Evans Library ligger også på hovedcampus i Melbourne.
