``When I look back at my life, I consider my choice to enroll at FIT is a true blessing. I learned how to do research, as well as write and publish technical papers. My confidence and future would not be possible without the superb support from CS department, its excellent professors, and the good study environment Florida Tech has provided. I also enjoyed campus life, which allowed me to develop friendships with students from around the world, taste varied cultures, enjoy fun new experiences, and contribute back to the surrounding Melbourne area through community service projects.''

``I transfered from the University of Texas at Austin to Florida Tech at Melbourne when I changed my major from Operations Research to Computer Science. Soon I felt comfortable because of nice faculty members who satisfied my scholastic spirit. My experience suggests prospective student who wants to study Computer Science won't regret coming to Florida Tech. You will learn more than just raw knowledge.''

``I came to Florida Tech as a foreign student. I soon learned that I was able to develop my personal interests in Computer Science, not only through the curricilumn, but also through the pursuit of my personal interests in computer science with the aid of the very supportive faculty.

After I graduated I established a successful software development company in Melbourne Florida, where I enjoy the fruits of my studies.''
