UCF Students Making a Global Impact Through Service-Learning
Teamwork. Interdisciplinary collaboration. Cultural competence.
These are just some of the valuable skills our nursing students gain through service-learning across continents while, at the same time, providing much-needed care to rural and underserved communities.
Study Abroad Opportunities
Students may receive course credit through official study abroad opportunities organized by UCF Abroad. Additionally, Honors in the Major students may study abroad with the Burnett Honors College.
Medical Service Trips
The College of Nursing collaborates with the UCF College of Medicine and other disciplines to provide global health clinical learning experiences for students, including the Dominican Republic and most recently to Peru.
Some financial assistance is available for students selected for Medical Service Trips, including the David and Ania Hanke Endowed Fund for Global Health Outreach.
What Our Students Say
“The interdisciplinary trip to Peru was the most valuable educational experience I have had thus far.”
