Florida State University Panama City hosts FSU Panama City Showcase Day from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. Saturday, March 5, at the Holley Academic Center, 4750 Collegiate Drive, for anyone interested in college planning and career readiness.

“We invite students from the area, including those who have been admitted to FSU, to learn more about the academic programs that are offered, including specific programs at FSU Panama City,” said David Henry, director of Enrollment and Student Success at FSU Panama City.

In the latest U.S. News & World Report rankings, FSU retained its place as a Top 20 national public university. FSU Panama City is home to FSU’s 16th college, the College of Applied Studies. FSU PC offers more than 20 undergraduate programs, including Commercial Entrepreneurship, Computer Science, Public Health, Social Work, Crime Scene Investigation (CSI) and the Underwater CSI Certificate. FSU PC also offers graduate programs and nationally accredited doctoral nurse anesthesia program.

FSU Panama City Showcase Day is a chance for students and families to meet with faculty, academic advisors and financial aid advisors to learn more about unique opportunities available at FSU Panama City. The day includes tours of campus and Seminole Landing, FSU PC’s housing complex along North Bay.

“Undergraduate students, transfer students and high school students are all welcome. We’d be happy to sit down and design their path to Florida State University,” Henry said. “Tour the Digital Design Studio to see our robot in action, visit our virtual reality room and see our 3D printers.”
