Faculty Senate
The Faculty Senate serves as the voice of the faculty within the institution. Made up of elected representatives from the various Schools, the Faculty Senate actively participates in FIT's governance, working in alignment with the policies set by the FIT Board of Trustees. According to its by-laws, the Senate possesses both the authority and responsibility to propose recommendations and represent the faculty's interests across all aspects of campus life.
