The Center for European Studies (CES) housed within the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences (CLAS) at the University of Florida (UF) is a Title VI National Resource Center funded in part by the US Department of Education. CES was created in 2003 and is currently one of just ten Europe/West Europe Title VI Centers in the country.

The goal of these centers as established by the US Department of Education is to assist in the development of area and language skills among the country's best students through fostering rich academic and cultural environments including broad language and areas studies courses, degree options and study abroad opportunities. Title VI centers also play a critical role in fostering greater international awareness in the broader community through educational and education programs for state and local government, business organizations, K-12 students and teachers, the media and the general public.
