Never bound to a classroom, active learning is part of the Florida Tech experience for all students, no matter their field of study.

Initial findings suggest the ailing estuary would benefit from a nudge of human intervention to help rejuvenate stunted natural processes.

Florida Tech uses its proximity to the Atlantic Ocean and Indian River Lagoon to become a distinguished center for oceanographic and marine science research.

The ocean engineering and marine sciences assistant professor knows that finding a solution to what ails the Indian River Lagoon will take effort from the entire community.

She frequently overcomes obstacles—both as a researcher and a woman in her male-dominated profession—and she aims to help others do the same.

New research projects, as well as a new building, continue the focus on improving the overall health of the Indian River Lagoon.

Florida Tech is a one-of-a-kind community. Our faculty, staff, students and alumni continuously strive to achieve their goals, contribute to the greater good and relentlessly pursue greatness—so much so, they’re making headlines. 1.
