Boeing has designated Florida Tech as one of its “Focus Schools.” These are colleges or universities singled out by the company for financial support and
other forms of partnership and collaboration. For example, Boeing has, for 10 years, financially supported the effort of Florida Tech’s College of
Aeronautics to assist in the advancement of civil aviation training in China.

Florida Tech is ranked by the Carnegie Foundation as a Doctoral Research Intensive Institution and has been named as one of America’s best colleges by U.S.
News & World Report for 15 consecutive years.
