Florida polytechnic university

Florida Polytechnic University is the nation’s leading institution of change, engineered from the ground up to push the boundaries of education in science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM). Located in Lakeland, the heart of Florida’s High-Tech Corridor, Florida Poly provides cutting-edge degree programs that prepare graduates to take on today’s fastest-growing fields.

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.

Florida Poly will be a premier STEM university known for producing highly desirable graduates and new technology solutions.

Florida Poly 2.0 is the university’s blueprint for the future and consists of a five-year strategic plan and the vision for a robust research park adjacent to campus.

Titled “Advancing to Excellence”, the strategic plan outlines the academic and economic goals the University will work to attain by the year 2023.

Florida Polytechnic University was granted initial regional accreditation from the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Colleges (SACSCOC) to award bachelor’s and master’s degrees.
