Why UCF’s College of Business?

At UCF College of Business, our objective is clear: help our students and faculty “Get to the ONE.” For students, we strive to be the place where they can achieve their academic objectives to be the ONE who gets the job, starts a business, makes the sale, makes a contribution and mentors others. Students who graduate from the college will be great communicators and collaborators, risk takers, data-driven decision makers and problem solvers. Our team – faculty, staff, friends, and alumni — is working hard to provide the right resources and environment to ensure we deliver on those promises.

Relevant

Our faculty and staff seek to provide our students with the education and experiences they need to succeed in today’s market. Whether in the classroom or delivering a talk at the Dean’s Speaker Series, faculty members are engaged in the latest research and program development. We offer programs that provide practical, hands-on learning and real-world experience. Each week business and community leaders, entrepreneurs and alumni can be found in The EXCHANGE sharing their stories with students and giving them real-world insight into their industry.

Engaging

A true culture of engagement sets the College apart from other business schools. With hundreds of events, activities, programs, organizations and resources available, students can identify their passion, practice their pitch, network with industry leaders, jumpstart a career or even launch a business before graduating. We push our students to get out of their comfort zones to try new things, communicate and collaborate with people who are different from them and take risks. At the end of the day, we want to see our students “get to the one” – the one who gets the job, the one who gets the raise, the one who lands the investor and the one who starts a business.

Inspiring

As the top provider of talent in Central Florida, our goal is to connect our corporate partners and the business community with our talented students and distinguished faculty and to serve as the resource to network and grow your business.
