Nova Southeastern University (NSU) is a private nonprofit university, with a main campus located on 315 acres in Davie, in the US state of Florida. Formerly referred to as "Nova" and now commonly called "NSU", the university currently consists of 18 colleges and schools offering over 150 programs of study. The university offers professional degrees in law, business, osteopathic medicine, allopathic medicine, allied health, pharmacy, dentistry, optometry, physical therapy, education, occupational therapy, and nursing.

History

Farber West Hall.

1960s

Main Entrance of NSU.

The university, originally named Nova University of Advanced Technology, was chartered by the state of Florida on December 4, 1964. With an inaugural class of 17 students, the university opened as a graduate school for the social and physical sciences.

The university was originally located on a campus in downtown Fort Lauderdale but later moved to its current campus in Davie, Florida. A portion of the site of this campus was once a naval training airfield during World War II, called the "Naval Outlying Landing Field Forman". The remnants of the taxiway surrounding the airfield are still present in the form of roads used on the campus. After World War II, the federal government made a commitment to the Forman family, from whom the land was purchased, that the land would only be used for educational purposes. This led the land to be used for the creation of the South Florida Education Center, which includes Nova Southeastern University, as well as Broward College, Florida Atlantic University, McFatter Technical College, and the University of Florida.

1970s

On June 23, 1970, the board of trustees voted to enter into a federation with the New York Institute of Technology (NYIT). The president of NYIT, Alexander Schure, Ph.D., became chancellor of Nova University. Abraham S. Fischler became the second president of the university. The university charter was amended and “of Advanced Technology” was dropped from its corporate name. In 1971, Nova University received accreditation from the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools (SACS).

In 1972, the university introduced its first off-campus course of study in education. In 1974, NSU opened a law school, with an inaugural class of 175 students. The same year, the university began offering evening courses on campus for undergraduates, and changed its name to Nova University. The following year, in 1975, the law school received approval from the American Bar Association.

1980s

South Entrance of NSU.

In the early 1980s, the university received a $16 million gift from the Leo Goodwin Sr. Trust. In 1985, NSU ended its collaboration with New York Institute of Technology (NYIT), and began offering its first online classes. In 1989, enrollment reached 8,000 students, with nearly 25,000 alumni. Revenue approached $70 million.

1990s

Morton & Geraldine Terry Atrium.

In 1994, Nova University merged with Southeastern University of the Health Sciences to form Nova Southeastern University (NSU), adding the Colleges of Osteopathic Medicine, Pharmacy, Optometry and Allied Health to the university.

2000s

The William and Norma Horvitz Administration Building, a two-story 62,000-square-foot (5,800 m) neoclassical structure, was built at a cost of $3 million, which now houses the office of the president and numerous other administration departments.

In 2001, the Alvin Sherman Library for Research and Information Technology Center was completed and is the largest public library facility in the state of Florida.

In 2004, the Carl DeSantis Building opened, which houses the H. Wayne Huizenga School of Business and Entrepreneurship and the Graduate School of Computer and Information Sciences. The building is a 261,000-square-foot (24,200 m), five-story facility, and cost about $33 million.

In 2006, the 344,600-square-foot (32,010 m) University Center opened, which includes a 5,400 seat area, a fitness center, a performance theater, art gallery, a food court, and a student lounge.

Five residence halls on the main campus serve undergraduate, graduate, health professions, and law students, with a capacity for housing 720 students in approximately 207,000 square feet (19,200 m) of living space. In 2007, a 525-bed residence hall opened, called "The Commons".

In 2008, NSU, in partnership with the National Coral Reef Institute and the International Coral Reef Symposium, held the largest coral reef symposium in the world, which included representation from 75 different countries in attendance.

2010s

In 2014, NSU opened a new campus in Puerto Rico, with master and doctoral programs.

In April 2015, NSU announced a significant restructuring of its schools and colleges, adopting an all college framework, to take effect the following July. The revised structure included program realignment and two new colleges; Dr. Kiran C. Patel College of Allopathic Medicine and Farquhar Honors College.

Campuses

Nova Southeastern University has a main campus located in Davie, Florida, with several branch campuses throughout the state, and one in Puerto Rico.

Davie Campus

Shark Shuttle has services both on campus and between campuses.

The main campus consists of 314 acres and is located in Davie, Florida. The main campus includes administrative offices, classroom facilities, library facilities (including the Alvin Sherman Library), health clinics, mental health clinics, Don Taft University Center, residence halls, cafeterias, computer labs, the bookstore, athletic facilities, and parking facilities.

The Alvin Sherman Library, Research, and Information Technology Center is the largest library building in the state of Florida. The library was opened to the public in December 2001, and offers workshops on a variety of topics each semester online and at NSU Campuses.

Recently completed and upcoming construction

The 215,000 square foot Center for Collaborative Research opened in 2016. Additionally, a 250,000 square foot interdisciplinary medical education building and a new parkade are planned.

A 500-600 unit undergraduate residence will begin construction in April, 2018. As well, a 1300 car parkade will be constructed.

NSU University School

The main campus hosts the NSU University School. The University School is a fully accredited, independent, college preparatory school that serves grades Pre-Kindergarten through grade 12, and is located on the Davie Campus. This school, often referred to as just the "University School", is broken up into three academic areas: the lower; middle; and upper schools. These represent, respectively, elementary, middle and high school divisions within the school.

Dania Beach Campus
