The UF/IFAS Citrus Research and Education Center (CREC) is the oldest and largest off-campus experiment station in UF's Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences (UF/IFAS) and is unique among research centers in that it focuses entirely on one commodity, citrus.

The Department of Entomology and Nematology maintains tripartite priorities consistent with the mandate given to full-service landgrant universities and associated experiment stations: <a href="https://entnemdept.ufl.edu/research-areas/department-research-areas/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Research</a>, <a href="http://entomology.ifas.ufl.edu/extension/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Extension</a>, and <a href="https://entnemdept.ufl.edu/academic-programs/academics-directory/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Academics</a>. These programs are facilitated with state funding, extramural contract and grant funding, donations and gifts, and the collaborative efforts of cooperating agencies and institutions. The Department has coordinated faculty efforts and strengths into what could be considered major thrust areas for the Department. These areas of emphasis include: Behavior, Ecology, and Systematics; Biological Control; Medical, Veterinary and Urban Entomology; Nematology; Pest Management; and Physiology, Biochemistry, and Genetics.
