Contact Us Lake Nona Blvd. After taking a research methods course and epidemiology, I discovered that I loved Health research and the impact that epidemiology has on healthcare and society overall. Within my program I was required to take an epidemiology and communicable disease course. Through this course I was reminded of the research aspect of health science studies that I admired. Although becoming a medical physician is a great accomplishment; epidemiologist study infectious diseases, trends of healthcare, public health, and global medicine.
Many patients can be helped with preventative measures along with public health influences. Stopping infectious diseases, and preventing disorders or illnesses among different societies, will benefit a variation of patients. Doctor Rovito gave me a difference insight on health care, and I am grateful for his teaching style and dedication to myself and other students. Natalia Cruz. My college provided me with the tools I would to succeed in graduate school.
The tools I was provided with gave me an advantage of what to expect in graduate school. I prepared to face challenges with the knowledge I had acquire. There are not many schools that give effective tools to succeed. University of Central Florida also has a lot of connections. The staff are willing to go out of their way to ensure you can have a chance at job opportunities.
While I was attending the school, I was given a lot of opportunities to meet people who could take me further in life. I would most likely not be where I am if it were not for a lot the opportunities I was given. My college not only provides the necessary tools to succeed, but also have staff that genuinely care. The staff really care about their students and make attempts to ensure that students are not falling behind. It was a safe learning environment where students can feel safe. Every time I went to school, I felt like I was not just a number at the university.
The staff take their time to get to know you personally. I was able to have good relationships with most of the staff. All the students that attend that university stand out and are not just reflected as numbers.
There is no better place to learn than at the University of Central Florida. Vanessa Garcia. Within my specific major I found lots of resources and support. Peer advisors were especially helpful because it was advice given from actual students who took the same classes I did. I also enjoyed most of my classes, and those classes I found difficult, the professors and teaching assistants always took the time to help me understand concepts and prepare for exams.
UCF also offered a wonderful "college experience", with tailgating events, football games, and an entire week of fun activities every fall semester. I loved my time as an undergrad at UCF and would recommend it to anyone. College is what you make of it, and UCF offers lots of opportunities to make college the best years of your life. Stephanie Weronik. The dedication to following the core competencies according to the National Association of Social Work allowed students to gain insight into the importance of a social worker.
While the BSW program is challenging it is very rewarding. In addition to taking a full credit load of classes, you also do an internship in your final year in the program. This internship provides you with real world experience and hands on training in the field that in a few short months, you will hopefully be part of the world force. I had an incredible BSW internship experience, I was able to work at an advocacy center as a victim advocate intern, and learn so much from the hours I completed there.
I learned tools that I use today in my current job. I think the use of a BSW internship is so important because while coursework and learning the interventions and techniques is important for a base line of knowledge, being in the field and seeing the materials come to life is incredible.
I would not have been able to get my current job if it wasn't for the BSW program at UCF providing me with almost clinical hours of experience directly in the field, that put me above other candidates and really stood out on resumes.
Shellane McCreless. However, the politics behind the scenes was very frustrating. Let me say upfront, that I went to a satellite campus and the staff was very small and my cohorts were not team players. I had my adviser come out point blank and tell me that basically he found it very hard to believe that when I stated facts with eyewitnesses, that they were true.
When I went to the main campus, what usually took me months to take care of at the satellite campus, was resolved very quickly in no time at all. My brother attended UCF as well and had a very positive experience; but again, he went to the main campus. Overall, UCF is a good school I guess, I did not have an overall great experience, but I did graduate and got my degree.
My instructors were amazing and took the time to come out 4 nights a week to teach us and prepare us for the field in which we were studying for. Shahrika Whiting-Langston. My focus was on humanities, public administration and mathematics. Within the Interdisciplinary program, there was an exposure to not just one subject but multiple. Unlike the traditional degree program, a student can focus on different subjects that may enable to gather skills necessary for a variety of jobs.
Within the humanities, there was a focus of study that included art, music, history and philosophy. Within public administration, there was an emphasis on public administration, public policy formulation, public finance problem solving, program development, implementation and valuation, human resources and labor relations, leadership through service to others, management strategies, and critical thinking.
Within mathematics, there was a study of quantities, forms, and symbolic logic in such subjects as algebra, geometry, calculus, logic, topology, and number theory. My overall experience was online. I feel that the instructors were available and the program design was organized. My degree audit allowed me the opportunity to remain on track and take the classes needed to obtain my degree.
The financial aid office was the only problem I experienced within my time at UCF. I continually had to remain on the financial aid office and have multiple follow ups regarding receiving my aid by the deadline. Otherwise my experience at UCF was rewarding and it allowed me to go to not only one of the largest colleges in the US but also graduate and become an alumni. Brittyn Hill. It has the second largest student enrollment population at nearly over 60, students each year.
The University of Central Florida is a place of inclusion and opportunities. The vast internship, student organizations, volunteer opportunities, and educational access is unlimited. UCF is a commuter school, which means that parking will be your number one issue. Thankfully I've noticed multiple lots and parking garages that are being implemented to help this problem.
Most students who pursue in a health specific major will also have classes that are housed here. Since enrollment is large, majority of science classes are held in an auditorium. The auditorium is split into two sides, with monitors used to help explain what the professor is teaching.
Professors are helpful and passionate about your education. However, you must do the work. There are many opportunities to meet up with your professor during their office hours to get help on topics that you may not have understood in lecture. Students who are not accepted are offered the option of completing an alternative degree program, including the B. Degree in Biomedical Sciences and applying to hospital internships independently.
