Tampa, FL - People across the globe now have the opportunity to attend one of America’s premier universities without leaving home. The Florida Institute of Technology, a top U.S. News & World Report-ranked university, this week began offering classes in eleven undergraduate degree programs at Florida Tech University Online. Students enrolled in Florida Tech University Online can earn their degrees 100% online - without ever setting foot on campus.
