Human Resources

Welcome UF Postdoctoral Researchers and Fellows.

The Office of the Postdoctoral Affairs and Prestigious Awards is committed to continually advancing the University’s support of postdocs. Postdocs are an essential component to the outcomes of our research and scholarship, which have tremendous societal impact. Equally important is ensuring support for their roles as partners, parents, and community members.

This section is a supportive and comprehensive resource when it comes to making crucial decisions related to your health and well-being. These benefits are used by hundreds of UF Postdoctoral Researchers and Fellows every day and are integral to the strength of the UF Postdoctoral community. 

Postdocs are eligible to enroll in benefits on their first date of appointment. The benefits package provided by the University provides postdocs enhanced support across the spectrum of areas related to health and well-being. Please visit each sub-section to get a broad understanding of the UF postdoc policy, benefits, compensation & taxes, UF employee assistant program and some frequently asked questions.
