Getting Around  

Biscayne Bay & University Park: The Golden Panther Express Shuttle is available to students who need to travel between the University Park campus and the Biscayne Bay campus.  The Shuttle Schedule can be found at: http://www.fiu.edu/bus.html.

University Park: CATS is a shuttle service between the University Park campus and the Engineering and Applied Sciences Center Building. The CATS schedule is available online at: http://www.fiu.edu/~xauxsvc/CATS.html

City Transport: The Metro-Dade Transit provides several ways of transportation depending upon where you want to go. There are several bus routes (via Metro-bus) that have a stop at the University and connect with the Metro-rail and Tri-rail systems, enabling travel throughout the tri-county area (including Dade, Broward and Palm Beach County). More detailed information about the following transportation systems can be found:

  • Metro-bus  - Metro-passes for Metro-bus, Metro-rail and Metro-mover can be purchased from the FIU Parking & Traffic Department on the University Park Campus for $45.00 a month.  If you want to park in a Metro Station, you will need to purchase a Parking Hang Tag for an additional $5.00 (cash only).  Metro-passes are limited, so to ensure you get a metro-pass through FIU, you should pre-pay by the second week of each month for the following month's metro-pass.  Your prepaid metro-pass can be picked up a week prior to the beginning of its effective month (i.e., metro-pass for August would be paid for the second week of July and picked up the last week of July).  For more info, visit

  • Metro-rail - Miami-Dade County's rapid transit system runs from Kendall through South Miami, Coral Gables, and downtown Miami; to the Civic Center/Jackson Memorial Hospital area; and to Brownsville, Liberty City, and Hialeah, with connections to Broward and Palm Beach counties at the Tri-Rail/Metro-rail transfer station.  For more information, see http://www.co.miami-dade.fl.us/transit/.

  • Tri-Rail - Tri-Rail is South Florida's commuter railroad, operating seven days a week from 18 train stations.  It's a regional commuter rail system with trains running parallel to Interstate 95 servicing Miami-Dade, Broward, and Palm Beach counties.  Based on zoned travel, round-trip prices range from $3.50 to $9.25, or discounted monthly tickets available to students for $40.00.  If you want to know more, visit http://www.tri-rail.com/.
