Export Controls

Florida Tech is committed to conducting research in compliance with export control laws, regulations, and sanctions of the United States. Florida Tech, in fulfilling this commitment, has established export control oversight in the Office of Research with support by University administration and in collaboration with both academic and research units engaged in activities subject to export control. The Office of Sponsored Programs, under the Office of the Executive Vice President for Academics, provides direction and support to administration, researchers, faculty, staff, and employees in complying with export control. The Office of Sponsored Programs provides education, training, and guidance on U.S. export control as it pertains to research and related activities at Florida Tech.

Export Control Management Plan

If export control regulations apply to a research project, the principal investigator is expected to work with the Export Control Program (ECP) to develop an appropriate management plan. The ECP uses the following to manage export-controlled technology and to reduce the potential for violations of export control regulations:

Technology Control Plans
Federal export licenses
Export license exceptions or exemptions

The Export Control Management Plan is a tool to disseminate compliance protocols implemented at Florida Tech for compliance with U.S.export control laws, regulations, and sanctions.
