AFIT (AFIT Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, OH)
The Air Force Institute of Technology (AFIT) is located at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, Ohio. AFIT is the Air Force's technical graduate school, offering Master's and Ph.D. degrees and professional continuing education to Department of Defense military and civilian personnel, as well as defense industry employees. The Graduate School is unique among graduate schools in the country: it is a graduate-only, research-based institution - in the company of only a very small number of other institutions in this category.
Summer faculty fellows will work in AFIT's Graduate School of Engineering and Management, where research is a key component to every student's experience. Research at AFIT occurs in and between the fields of aeronautical and astronautical engineering, mathematics and statistics, engineering physics, electrical and computer engineering, systems engineering, operational sciences and logistics, and nuclear engineering.
The AFIT faculty often collaborate with researchers located at adjacent Air Force Research Laboratory facilities, as well as with those in research laboratories and universities across the United States.
