History
Florida Poly was established on April 20, 2012 to advance the state’s economy. We’ve established a name for ourselves as a university with a rigorous curriculum, advanced research equipment, and a focus on solving industry problems with creative solutions.
Education
Florida Poly offers STEM minded high school students like you an alternative — a dynamic, research-based and hands-on science, technology, engineering, and math education delivered with the small-campus, one-on-one attention you'll find at a selective private college.
Research
Applied research is more than a buzzword at Florida Poly. From classroom demonstrations to our open laboratories, we believe solutions to today’s problems are just a big idea away.
Renowned University researchers partner with industry and tech leaders to advance knowledge and technology in growing, in-demand fields.
Career
Florida Poly’s Academic Success Center puts on a semi-annual career and internship fair for students to connect with employers from across the country. This is a networking opportunity for students to land an internship or a job after college.

Exceptional
The first advantage when reviewing FPT University is the training program. The training program at FPT is completely different from other universities, it is practical, closely linked with businesses in the market, so it is highly appreciated. At FPT, the student's curriculum is guaranteed to be always updated to conform to international technology standards. In particular, FPT students after finishing their studies will be highly appreciated by businesses thanks to their focus on foreign language development while still in school.
Good emphasis on practical skills
The university provides a good campus environment focused on developing essential soft skills like teamwork, collaboration, and self-learning. This emphasis on practical skills enhances students' abilities to thrive in various professional settings. Overall, I would recommend FPT University
Applied Mathematics at FPU
The math department at Florida Poly is a close-knit community that is rapidly expanding with the university. All of the math professors are experts in their fields and are great to talk to about course work and personally. I gave the program 4 stars because of math is extremely difficult and, I would argue, the most difficult major at the university. I just completed my degree and I am struggling to find a career that needs my expertise.

Student services
Established in 2014, the Student Government Association (SGA) acts as the students’ voice to the University’s leadership, campus community, and public at large.

Housing services
On-campus living and dining are an essential part of the University experience. They literally fuel education and growth. At Florida Poly, the supportive, family-like environment extends to the residence and dining facilities and helps boost academic and personal success.
Two modern residence halls are central to the growing Florida Poly campus. They are an equally easy walk to the iconic Innovation, Science, and Technology building where classes are held and the dining and fitness facilities. Students enjoy the latest technology and accommodations in a setting that’s prime for continuous learning.
Library services
