Frederick University grew out of the Frederick Institute of Technology, founded in 1965, and was licensed as a private university by the Cypriot government in 2007. It has campuses in Nicosia, the capital, and Limassol, the island's business hub, with five schools covering engineering, business and law, arts and design, education and social sciences, and health sciences.

Engineering is Frederick's traditional strength. It offers bachelor's degrees in civil, mechanical, electrical, computer and automotive engineering and computer science, all taught in English, and English-taught master's in structural, electrical, energy and marine engineering. Its business school teaches business administration, accounting and maritime studies, which suits Limassol's large shipping industry.
