FIU turns 50 today Today marks 50 years since #FIU opened its doors as a one-building university on an abandoned airfield.
 
Fifty years later, FIU is among the top research institutions in the nation and is the fastest-rising on the U.S. News and World Report public university ranking. U.S. News this week also ranked FIU among the top five universities for social mobility. These rankings come on the heels of two other placements from Degree Choices and Washington Monthly College Rankings that ranked FIU among the top 25 universities nationally for the economic return on graduates’ investment, and placed FIU at No. 32 nationally, respectively. CONGRATULATIONS!!! 🎉🎈🥂🍾🎊❤️
