The Renaissance Academy of Florida Gulf Coast University is the University’s and region’s premier lifelong learning program for adults. The Academy was founded on the premise that learning should never cease, that keeping the mind intellectually, creatively and culturally active fundamentally enriches and invigorates our lives. The Academy’s offerings include single lectures, short courses, day trips, computer classes, film series, life enrichment classes, writing workshops, music lessons, travel abroad and other special events whose academic substance and interactive format encourage the exchange of ideas and provide both intellectual stimulation and personal enjoyment. There are no exams or grades, just learning for the joy of learning with friends, neighbors and peers.
The Academy’s curriculum includes affordable, noncredit courses on a wide variety of topics including art, business, history, law and government, literature and language, ecology and environment, science and medicine, life enrichment, music and dance, religion and philosophy, psychology and sociology, and U.S. and world affairs. Courses are offered year round.
Value, convenience and accessibility underlie the excellence of the Academy’s programs. Affordable course fees, typically $20 per lecture, provide access to Academy programs located at eleven locations throughout Collier and Lee counties.
