The Air Force Institute of Technology (AFIT) enrolls over 700 full-time graduate students.
The student body consists primarily of Air Force officers, but is rounded out by members of the other four U.S. Armed Services, select enlisted Airmen, international students from coalition countries, U.S. Government civilians, and civilians (U.S. citizens) not affiliated with the Government.
Selection of officers for graduate education is fully funded by their service and is based upon outstanding professional performance as an officer, promotion potential, and a strong academic background.
Admission of non-Government affiliated civilians is based on academic preparation and requires U.S. citizenship.
A substantial number of AFIT graduates are assigned to AFRL and NASIC upon graduation from AFIT.
Many of the AFIT student thesis projects are influenced directly or indirectly by AFRL, NASIC, NRO and other Air Force and defense agencies.
