The New College of Business

The new UCA College of Business Building is a business-like environment where students, faculty and business leaders can gather and interact.  The building has a multitude of wireless classrooms, conference rooms, computer labs, and a 168-seat auditorium to allow UCA to host events.

The center for Insurance and Risk Management enhances the university's position as the state's only undergraduate program in insurance and risk management, and is bringing the industry and academia together.  The center houses a training and testing lab and has a historical collection that facilitates research and honors the traditions of the insurance industry.

National Alliance and UCA will offer Insurance Designation 

The National Alliance for Insurance Education & Research, in partnership with the University of Central Arkansas, will offer the University Associate Certified Insurance Counselor (UACIC) designation for university students.  This provides students a designation before they graduate, and gives them a significant head start on earning the prestigious, Certified Insurance Counselor (CIC) designation.  UCA is one of the first universities in the country to offer the WACFC designation.
 

The five-part CIC Program demonstrates real-world knowledge in the following areas: Personal Lines, Commercial Casualty, Commercial Property, Life & Health and Agency Management.  Students completing the required courses and exams will receive automatic credit for the Commercial Casualty Life and Health Institute of the CIC designation, and become a designated UACIC.
