Jobs. Think UWF.

The University of West Florida supports nearly 15,000 jobs across the state of Florida and generates more than $1.5 billion in personal income annually.

UWF contributes to the development of a more educated workforce (which returns dollars to the economy) but also a more educated, culturally aware society through museums, galleries, performances, etc. While there is no real dollar value associated, this impact must be recognized.

The University generates the highest total employment demand in the retail trade industry and the highest occupational demand within the sales, office and administrative occupational classifications.
