The University of Central Florida College of Nursing is an academic college of the University of Central Florida located in Orlando, Florida, USA. The dean of the college is Jean D’Meza Leuner, Ph.D.
On July 1, 2007, the School of Nursing became the university’s 12th college. Originally a School of Nursing as part of the College of Health and Public Affairs since 1978, it was changed to college status to recognize its growth and stature. The college will continue to operate out of the College of Health and Public Affairs building on the main campus until it raises enough money to construct a new building on the UCF Health Sciences Campus at Lake Nona. A new building for the College of Nursing is not planned for the Health Sciences Campus until 2011. The college's eventual move to the Health Sciences Campus at Lake Nona will enable the college to work more closely with the College of Medicine.
