The building is expected to obtain the Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) silver certification due to its design, construction and energy-saving features.<\/p>\n<p>UCF currently offers four undergraduate degrees on Valencia&#8217;s West Campus: Applied Science, Business Administration, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ucf.edu\/degree\/interdisciplinary-studies-ba\/\">Interdisciplinary Studies<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ucf.edu\/degree\/psychology-bs\/\">Psychology<\/a>, plus the junior year of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ucf.edu\/degree\/electrical-engineering-bsee\/\">Electrical Engineering<\/a>. With the increased classroom space, UCF will expand offerings to include programs such as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ucf.edu\/degree\/nursing-bsn\/\">Nursing<\/a>, which will be added this fall.<\/p>\n<p>Since 2006, UCF has guaranteed admission to all Valencia graduates through DirectConnect to UCF, the most productive community college-university partnership in the country. Almost 19,000 Valencia students are now enrolled in DirectConnect to UCF.<\/p>\n<p>On August 24, UCF students will attend their first classes in the new facility.
