Mission Statement

In keeping with UCF's mission, the College of Health and Public Affairs recognizes that education is more than the classroom experience. Another component is academic advising, an educational process that begins at the university's orientation and continues at advising sessions that help students clarify their life goal and reach their maximum educational potential. Through academic advising, the college provides guidance, information and assistance to students. The College of Health and Public Affairs also ensures that each student makes the best possible use of the resources, programs and services that UCF has to offer.
