USF’s record-breaking lineup of 56 week-long educational summer camps provides hands-on experiences in robotics, culinary arts, archaeology, LEGO engineering, Esports, filmmaking, hospitality and even a zombie apocalypse.
USF’s historic invitation to join the Association of American Universities has taken what many in Tampa Bay have once considered a “best-kept secret” to an unprecedented new level. Being an AAU member is a tremendous milestone for USF as it formalizes USF's position as a leading research university. USF is the first public university in Florida to be invited to join the AAU in nearly 40 years and is now one of only two institutions from the State University System of Florida to serve as an AAU member.
