Residence Life is comprised of a diverse group of staff members who work to create an engaging and educational living environment. Our staff represents a plethora of campus groups and interests and has the knowledge to successfully guide students through a fulfilling Florida Tech experience.

During the course of the  Academic year, students are encouraged to meet and connect with the Residence Life Staff and take advantage of the knowledge, experience and enthusiasm that they provide.

Resident Assistants (RAs)

RAs are undergraduate students who undergo a variety of comprehensive training workshops to prepare themselves to be a resource and facilitator for our residence hall communities. There is an RA on every floor or within every building and they are the best immediate resource for the residential student.  

Community Directors (CDs)

The CD is either an undergraduate or graduate student with experience as an RA, but who holds an intermediary position between the RA and RDs. The CD is responsible for managing the programs and campus events that occur in each housing area.  CDs also advise the Residence Hall Association in our freshman communities.
