Florida International University lives up to its name with “strong programs in business, engineering, and international relations, making it a great place for students pursuing global careers.” Students appreciate the collaborative, interdisciplinary atmosphere on campus: “You’ll see pre-health students exchanging study tips with engineering majors, business students teaming up with artists on creative projects, and social science students sharing ideas with future tech innovators.” There’s also a lauded flexibility, whether that’s for studying in-person or online or as seen in the “great support system [for] physical, mental, or emotional needs.” Additionally, a steady influx of emails helps to communicate opportunities like “internships or mentorships and career fairs.” The school’s location in Miami is advantageous for the professional connections—there are “tons of networking and job opportunities in a major global city”—and the academic experience. Instructors often integrate the city into their classes, whether that’s “walking around a new part of South Florida every Wednesday for six hours, and learning about the history of Miami,” getting “extra credit points for participating in community events,” or having “a blast” learning about art directly from artists at local museums. Overall, students praise the “vast knowledge of the educators” here who “bring real-world experience into the classroom, which makes learning more engaging and applicable.”
