Why Visit Florida Poly?

Get to Know Us—In Person! A campus visit is the best way to experience what makes Florida Poly unique:

FUN FACT – The iconic Innovation, Science, and Technology (IST) Building is the centerpiece of Florida Poly’s campus. Designed by world-famous Spanish architect Santiago Calatrava, this 162,000-square-foot, white-domed structure is both a marvel of design and function, holding 23 architectural awards from regional to international levels. The building’s signature feature is a louvered roof system that can move to bring natural light into the second-floor atrium. Its unique oval shape is surrounded by curved metal pergolas, offering shade along the outer terrace and walkways.

Located in Central Florida

Nestled in Lakeland, Florida Poly is conveniently located along Interstate 4 (I-4) between Tampa and Orlando.

Lakeland serves as a central hub for exploring the best that Central Florida has to offer. Residents enjoy convenient access to an array of entertainment, theme parks, cultural experiences, and outdoor activities.
