Case Study: University of Florida College of Pharmacy achieves reliable, campus-wide virtual learning and modernized conference rooms with Zoom Video Communications

University of Florida College of Pharmacy Engages Zoom to Upgrade its Communication Platforms

The University of Florida College of Pharmacy, a Top‑10 pharmacy school founded in 1923 with more than 2,000 students across three campuses and award‑winning online programs, needed to modernize communications as hardware contracts came up for renewal. Administrators sought a simple, reliable solution that would integrate with existing conference room equipment and support their large, distributed online and on‑campus programs while reducing costs and training overhead.

They selected Zoom for its easy interface and dependable connectivity, deploying 150 Zoom licenses, six Zoom Rooms, and four Zoom H.323/SIP connectors to integrate with legacy hardware and create video‑enabled spaces. The rollout required minimal training and now supports lectures, student affairs, research and intercampus collaboration, helping the college maintain its leadership in online pharmacy education.
