Nova Southeastern University

As both a major campus in Florida as well as one of the most popular online universities, Nova Southeastern University offers students many options to obtain Associates, Bachelors, Masters as well as specific professional courses such as dentistry, law and medicine. While not all courses are offered online and not all degrees can be obtained completely online, there are many options for students including remote classrooms off campus as well as the option to complete some courses using technology such as the online format. This flexibility has lead to the popularity of the programs and has enhanced the reputation of Nova Southeastern. There are currently over 78 courses online, with these courses constantly upgraded to meet the changing needs of the professional and business community and new courses added based on student interest and industry needs.

Online students have access to many electronic resources at Nova Southeastern University and these include online journals, worldwide online library catalogues, databases, the NovaCat library catalogue as well as a private university email system. This email system requires a password and a registered username, ensuring that your communication is private. Through courses instructors and other students can communicate with each other using the private email system as well as discussion groups online, forums and other options to work together, creating a social learning environment even over the internet. All online courses are approved through the Southern Regional Education Board's Electronic Campus program which ensures quality education and strict adherence to good practices and principles of online learning and teaching.

Courses offered online through Nova Southeastern University include Bachelor and Master level business programs, education, computers and technology, as well as healthcare and nursing. Doctoral level programs online are offered in conflict analysis and resolution, computers and occupational therapy. Some of the more advanced level programs do require some on campus coursework, usually in the summer and fall and will be required for graduation. Teacher education classes at the Master's level also provide a break in the courses in the month of September, which is designed to help teachers get through the beginning of the school year without having to worry about their personal degree classes.

Faculty and instructors at Nova Southeastern University all have proven track records both as educators as well as professionals and researchers within their field of expertise and specialization. The instructors will cover both the theory and educational concepts, as well as provide practical, real world scenarios and experiences to allow student to apply their learning. Classes are well balanced with both the theory and practical applications, and feedback is routinely obtained from business and industry to help make changes to course content and materials. In addition to working closely with businesses, Nova Southeastern University also offers financial assistance to students through easy to access financial staff. These professionals can help students find just the loan, grant, scholarship or supplemental financial program that will meet their unique needs. Emphasis is placed on working with the student, not forcing the student to fit within a particular category for funding.
