Orlando, known as the “City Beautiful,” is not just theme parks. Our area has seen rapid growth in recent years and is a center for the life sciences, medical innovation and technological developments. UCF is also located next to one of the top research parks in the country—allowing UCF to partner with leading research institutes and businesses which provide internship and employment opportunities for students.

As a UCF student, you can take advantage of all these opportunities. And the best part is the weather—sunshine and a warm climate create the perfect environment to live, study and explore.
