Academic programs at FIU are divided across the university's 12 colleges—including our prestigious Honors College, schools of medicine and law and the University Graduate School. Each college brings together faculty expertise, transformational research and hands-on opportunities for your field of choice.
Your education doesn't have to stay within one college, either. Major in Biology in the College of Arts, Sciences & Education, and minor in Entrepreneurship through the College of Business. Study Digital Communications and Media and add a certificate in AI. FIU's colleges work together, not in isolation, so you can build a degree path as specific—or as wide-ranging—as your interests.
College life brings lots of great experiences, but it also presents lots of new challenges.
Tough classes, new stresses and lots of uncertainty. We've all been there and we know everyone needs a helping hand.
FIU provides students with the resources they need to transition into college smoothly, overcome academic challenges and have a successful college career.
