About FIU in DC

Creating Opportunities and Catalyzing Solutions in our Nation's Capital

An engaging presence in our nation's capital is critical to forging new federal, corporate and international partnerships that propel our Worlds Ahead solutions.

We will expand the impact of our faculty research, provide students with dynamic academic and internship experiences, celebrate alumni leadership, and position our change-maker community as we amplify FIU's voice in the national dialogue.

Why Washington, D.C.?

As the center of domestic, foreign and scientific policy, our nation’s capital is critical to the rise of FIU’s research innovation enterprise. The university’s standing and international reach also benefit from corporations, media outlets, think tanks, and foreign governments active in Washington. And as our 2,000 driven and empowered alumni in the capital region prove, this is a strong market for impactful jobs and leadership opportunities.
