Florida Technological University
officially began on June 10, 1963, when the State Legislature
passed Bill No. 125 and Governor Farris Bryant signed it into
law: 'An ACT authorizing the state board of education to
establish a state university or a branch of an existing state
university in the east central part of Florida; defining the area;
authorizing the board of control and the state board of education
to determine the exact location; providing an effective date.'
The act, which took effect July 1, 1963, defined east central
Florida as including the counties of Flagler, Orange, Seminole,
Lake, Brevard, Volusia, Osceola, Indian River and St. Lucie.*
The
current service area for UCF encompasses 11 counties including Brevard,
Citrus, Flagler, Lake, Levy, Marion, Orange, Osceola, Seminole,
Sumter, and Volusia counties.
