Nova Southeastern University

At Nova Southeastern University, our approach to learning has always been innovative and unique. We’re not like every other university because you’re not like any other student.

Established in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, in 1964 as a small college with some revolutionary ideas, today we’re a university dedicated to making our world a healthier and better place to live. Classified as a research university with “high research activity” by the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching, NSU is 1 of only 50 universities nationwide to also be awarded Carnegie’s Community Engagement Classification. NSU is also the largest private, not-for-profit institution in the United States that meets the U.S. Department of Education’s criteria as a Hispanic-serving institution.

From our beautiful, 314-acre main campus in Fort Lauderdale to our nine campus locations in the U.S., and around the world, more than 280 undergraduate, graduate, and professional degree programs give students the edge they need to become confident, capable, and caring professionals who can outsmart, outperform, and outlast their competition.
