The University of Florida (UF) has a rich history of being on the forefront of innovation and entrepreneurship. As a research university with over 150 research centers and institutes on one  contiguous campus, as well as over 1000 student organizations to be involved in, UF presents plenty of opportunities for students to gain experience and make impacts in their fields of choice. Additionally, the Gator Nation consists of a growing network of accomplished leaders and resources in industry that are always connected with the university rooted in Gainesville, Florida.

 With highly regarded programs in engineering, business, medicine, and more, UF follows a mission to “enable our students to lead and influence the next generation and beyond for economic, cultural and societal benefit.” In following this mission, the University of Florida has adopted initiatives to help  foster student leadership, entrepreneurship, and innovation. Now more than ever, the atmosphere for innovation and entrepreneurship at the University of Florida is growing as students look to acquire the skills necessary to change the world.

U.S. News & World Report ranked the University of Florida as the 14th-best public university in the United States, and 48th overall among all national universities, public and private. UF was recognized as a Public Ivy in 2001, and a “preeminent” state university in Florida by Governor Rick Scott in 2013.
