Email Signatures

Your email signature is often an opportunity to make a good first impression as a representative of UCF. For clarity and consistency, we recommend the following email signature format for employees of UCF. The example below is meant as a visual guide. Note that copying and pasting the example into Outlook may appear differently and require additional formatting.
