Mission Statement
The Department of Extended Studies is an integral academic unit of
Florida Tech that delivers graduate programs in response to evolving
societal needs to elevate the knowledge capacity of a global society.
Its purpose is to serve the public good through enhancing diversity and
knowledge to adult learners in the global workforce for all branches
of foreign and military services, local and federal governments, business
and industry.
Overview
Degrees offered off-campus through extended studies provide a number
of specialized master’s degrees in addition to the master of business
administration, which has oversight through the college. Extended
studies students may also take some of their courses online through
the Virtual Site.
Extended Studies began in August 1972 as “Off-Campus Programs,”
when 42 students enrolled in a master’s degree program in electrical
engineering at the Naval Air Test Center, Patuxent River, Maryland.
From that modest beginning, the graduate programs have grown
substantially with students enrolled in over 30 degree programs.
Extended studies programs that benefit employees of industry were
added in 1976 when in-plant courses started with several firms and
