T
he successes of FIU, our students and alumni have their foundation in the hard work and dedication of FIU faculty and staff who create an environment that inspires Real Triumphs. Because of your work, our students soar as innovators and leaders on the global stage — and FIU is rewriting the narrative of what it means to be a public research university in the 21st century. In the last five years, FIU has jumped 54 spots in the U.S. News & World Report rankings, the greatest improvement among Carnegie R1 public universities and the second highest of any university. The jump in the U.S. News rankings comes on the heels of a banner year for the university that includes placing first among public universities in the state in the Board of Governors’ performance metrics; receiving a $40 million donation from philanthropist and author MacKenzie Scott that recognizes FIU’s social mobility and excellence initiatives; and ranking third in the nation among universities younger than 50. In a time that has been unlike any other in recent history, we are reminded that by working together, we achieve our greatest successes. In 2021 – for the sixth consecutive year – our FIU was named one of the best colleges in the nation to work for, according to a survey by The Great College to Work For® program. The university also achieved honor roll designation, with recognition in 10 out of 10 categories. FIU has received honor roll designation every year since 2016. Such honors are a testament to our collective belief that through collaboration, a shared commitment to excellence and a prevailing atmosphere of respect, we elevate our student body, institution and community. Thank you for being part of something that is making a difference in the lives of so many.
