Dean Paul Jarley created the Student Ambassador program in January 2013 as a way to enhance the student engagement experience within the College of Business Administration. While the concept of what it means to be an Ambassador is constantly changing and growing, Ambassadors have been, and will continue to be, the Dean’s student voices in the communities we serve. Our mission is to embody and communicate the vision of the Dean by promoting engagement in the opportunities available to the UCF community. We support the college’s mission to give students a competitive advantage in the world of business now and in the future and to continue the transformation into a “next-generation business school” through the development of a unique college culture that promotes engagement, risk taking, cross-disciplinary collaboration and data-driven decision making. The Student Ambassadors are sponsored by Northwestern Mutual, a UCF College of Business partner and a leader in the insurance industry and a top independent broker-dealer in the investment products and services industry.
