About the UCF College of Medicine
The UCF College of Medicine was established in 2006 by the Florida Legislature and the Florida Board of Governors to increase opportunities for medical education in Florida.
The college currently offers programs in biomedical sciences and will offer a doctor of medicine (M.D.) degree program beginning Fall 2009. The M.D. Program will enroll an initial class of 40 students and eventually produce about 120 medical graduates each year.
The four-year medical program will capitalize on UCF’s existing strengths in biomedical sciences, modeling and simulation, and optics and photonics. Other programs in materials science, psychology, chemistry, film and digital media, and nursing will support the program.
