<strong>Florida</strong> Tech conducts evening, graduate-level, pr<strong>of</strong>essional development programs<br />

for students in the Orlando area with classes <strong>of</strong>fered on-site at Lockheed Martin<br />

Electronic and Missiles Group facilities and the new <strong>Florida</strong> Tech site in Baldwin<br />

All classes <strong>of</strong>fered in Orlando are taught by <strong>Florida</strong> Tech faculty. Students may take<br />

The Orlando programs provide continuing education for personnel to maintain their<br />

pr<strong>of</strong>essional and technical competence, and for their development and career progression.<br />

Any degree obtained by a U.S. government employee in the process <strong>of</strong> receiving<br />

such pr<strong>of</strong>essional development is an incidental by-product there<strong>of</strong>.<br />

The program provides the working person the chance to earn a graduate degree in two<br />

years as a part-time student taking a normal load <strong>of</strong> two courses per semester, each<br />

course requiring class attendance one evening a week. Transfer credits earned through<br />

certain military courses and at other universities may shorten the time required.<br />

The classroom environment provides a unique opportunity for an extensive exchange<br />

<strong>of</strong> ideas and viewpoints among representatives <strong>of</strong> education, industry and U.S. government<br />

military and civilians.<br />

Library facilities for the students are provided by agreement at the University <strong>of</strong> Central<br />

<strong>Florida</strong> and through online access or interlibrary loan with the main campus library<br />

in Melbourne, <strong>Florida</strong>.<br />
