We are working on a new College of Medicine online directory. In the meanwhile, please, use UCF online Phonebook or UCF Published Campus Phonebook to locate contact information of individual COM staff and faculty members.


We’re on target, on time.
Numerous organizations and associations are involved in the voluntary regulation of medical education in the United States. The primary accreditation organization for undergraduate medical education is the Liaison Committee on Medical Education (LCME). The LCME (www.lcme.org ) is the nationally recognized accrediting authority for medical education programs leading to the M.D. degree in U.S. and Canadian medical schools. The LCME is sponsored by the Association of American Medical Colleges and the American Medical Association. All state licensing boards in the United States require graduation from an LCME-accredited school to be eligible for licensure as an allopathic physician.

LCME three-step process for granting accreditation to new medical schools:

  1.  Preliminary accreditation granted prior to recruiting the charter class of students

  2. Provisional accreditation, granted during the second year of the charter class

  3. Full accreditation granted during the fourth year of the charter class

UCF is on track
Preliminary accreditation has been granted and we are now recruiting the charter class of students to the College of Medicine for Fall 2009 enrollment.
