Top-Ranked Research
From the top of the globe to the ocean's floor FIU researchers are exploring the toughest challenges of our time: sea level rise, childhood mental health disorders and more. This solutions-center approach is why FIU is designated a Carnegie Very High Research institution, the only public university in South Florida to achieve this distinction.
A Campus as Diverse as its Students
Get lost in the 342-acre city block that is Modesto A. Maidique Campus. Sit on the sandy shores of Biscayne Bay Campus. Or explore any one of our 4 satellite locations across South Florida. With a student body of 54,000, we make sure there’s something for everyone here.
Life at FIU is More Than Just Going to Class
Walk to the Graham center and join a club, or go outside and take a seat with the yoga class on the lawn. Join a fraternity or sorority and go Greek, or if you have the voice, apply at our radio station: the Roar. Here at FIU, we encourage you to get out there and become a member of the FIU family.
Student Involvement
We're not just talkers, we're doers. Getting involved is about more than getting to know your 54,000 fellow students. As Panthers, we work together to make a difference and we're always improving. Find your people and start growing in any of our 300+ clubs and organizations.
