Online and Virtual Education

The Center for Online and Virtual Education (COVE) is the delivery system established to provide students with the most convenient and timely engineering education possible. Online courses help students who may have time or distance challenges.

Each class has multiple sections and students register based upon where they would take tests, if proctored ones are given. Those students taking tests at a location other than a UCF campus must first complete this online registration form.  This form must be submitted prior to registration each term.  This should be done as soon as possible prior to the start of the term to avoid possible late fee charges. Beginning Summer 2026, the COVE office will register students for their courses after instructor approval via the above form. Please DO NOT fill out this form unless you are certain you will be taking the requested course.  The form may be submitted without proctor information, but that information must be provided as soon as possible.

Each department decides which courses will be offered online each term. These decisions are published in March for the Summer through Spring term.

Panopto is the lecture capture software supported by COVE and the University of Central Florida. Students view their lectures by either logging in to myUCF or Webcourses.
