An Unbeatable Florida Location
Sun, sand, surf. Sounds like the makings of an idyllic tropical vacation, but for Florida Tech, it’s home!
Our campus is located in Melbourne, Florida, a small beach town with big opportunities. We’ve got the perks of small-town living—comfort, security, a tight-knit community that cares—and the amenities of nearby big cities, like Orlando—theme parks, entertainment venues, bustling nightlife. We offer the sun, fun, eclectic downtown and activity typical of a tourism hub without the traffic and outlandish prices.
Melbourne is part of the so aptly named Space Coast—the perfect home for a university like Florida Tech, which was founded the same year as NASA to support the missilemen working on the budding U.S. space program. Today, we offer robust space-related undergraduate degree programs, like aerospace engineering, astrobiology and planetary science, supplemented by countless job, internship and cooperative education opportunities at major industry organizations, like NASA – Kennedy Space Center, Northrop Grumman Corp., SpaceX and more!
