African FOR BROWARD STUDENTS Americans, that make up 30 percent of the region, only rep- BY BROWARD STUDENTS resent 13 percent of the workforce. Women are even less represented, with not even a quarter represented in the Serving South Florida Students workforce. There is a tremendous need to provide quality Since 2003 education and opportunities to address the burgeoning growth in the tech sector. Increasing the number of Hispan- “JUST SAYING” ic, low-income, and other underrepresented populations in the tech sector is critical to the success and prosperity of economically depressed areas within the region. “Many of the in-demand jobs are in STEM fields,” said Dr. Jeffery Nasse, provost and senior vice president, Academic Affairs. “As we focus on equity and supporting all of our stu- dents to successful career paths, the ACCESS project is an- other way we are expanding and improving academic and support services to all our students. These high impact strat- egies will have a measurable effect on the enrollment and success of our diverse student population in the STEM fields.” Broward College prepares a diverse student body of more than 60,000 students. More than 84 percent of these stu- dents represent minority populations, including 39 percent Hispanic students. In addition, the South Florida region con- tinues to grow in high-skilled, high wage Tech sector jobs with nearly 78,000 employees, according to Burning Glass. To support Hispanic and other underrepresented popula- tions with STEM career aspirations and ensure that they move into the workforce or transfer to a four-year institu- tion, Broward College plans to use the grant funds to expand outreach and access to workforce education through the In- novation STEM (iSTEM) Center, a mobile unit that will offer experiential learning experiences at local high schools and within Broward UP (Unlimited Potential) communities which have the high rates of unemployment in Broward County; link students to STEM-focused research opportunities; pro- vide student support through success coaching; conduct ear- ly outreach through a summer bridge program for high school seniors; offer work-based experiences through ap- prenticeships; and conduct co-teaching strategies in comput- er science and cybersecurity with Broward College and FIU faculty and teaching assistants.

Featured Campuses, Admissions and Administration Broward College 23 Main Street, Davie Administration 954-201-7350 www.broward.edu First known as the Junior College of Broward County under the leadership of founding President Joe B. Rushing, the College received its first class of 701 students at the former Naval Air Station Junior High near the Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport on September 6, 1960. A group of 28 faculty and 19 staff served the inaugural class. In August 1963, the first campus opened in Davie, currently known as the A. Hugh Ad- ams Central Campus. In 1968, the College changed its name to Broward Junior College, and in 1970, it changed again to Broward Community College. By the late 1970s, two more campuses opened – the North Campus in Coconut Creek on February 27, 1972, and the Judson A. Samuels South Campus on January 17, 1978. Two centers soon joined the growing list of locations – the Willis Holcombe Center in Downtown Fort Lauder- dale on October 1, 1973, and the Tigertail Lake Center in 1974. Broward College was expanding throughout the county, and by the 1980s, it was serving well over 15,000 students and offering weekend classes. Today, Broward College has the second largest enrollment in Florida more than 5,000 full-time and parttime employees, serves 63,000 students across ten locations, and offers 67 programs of study in some of the fastest- growing industries in the region – healthcare, aviation, business, and information technology including certificates, associate and bachelor’s degree programs. The prestigious Aspen Institute recognizes the College as one of the top ten colleges in the nation, and some 1,000 institutions are eval- uated for eligibility for this prize. It’s ranked first in the state for the number of industry certifications awarded to students and is ranked as a top re- gional college in the South by U.S. News & World Report for 2019 and 2020.

Nova Southeastern University Administration 954-262-8000 www.nova.edu Nova Southeastern was founded in Fort Lauderdale, Florida during a time of historic social and cultural change. Looking back, 1964 was the per- fect time for a small university with a handful of students and some revolutionary ideas to take shape. They say breakfast is the most important meal of the day. And if it weren’t for a group of businessmen who met regularly for this meal, Nova Southeastern University might not be here to- day. Known as The Oatmeal Club, these civic-minded pioneers gathered in the early ’60s, determined to develop an innovative educational con- cept—an MIT of the South, with a twist. In 1964, what was then called Nova University of Advanced Technology was chartered as a graduate insti- tution in the physical and social sciences. Initially located at 232 East Las Olas Blvd. in downtown Fort Lauderdale. Nova later moved to the former site of Forman Field in Davie— an auxiliary airfield during WWII. The field was returned to the community after the war by the state Board of Edu- cation to be used for educational purposes as determined by brothers Hamilton and Charles Forman. Today, NSU is classified as a research uni- versity 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, and 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. NSU has campuses in Fort Lauderdale, Fort Myers, Jackson- ville, Miami, Miramar, Orlando, Palm Beach, and Tampa, Florida, as well as San Juan, Puerto Rico. NSU also offers a vast array of degree pro- grams in fully online or hybrid formats. Having pioneered distance education more than 40 years ago, NSU's online education experience is unpar- alleled and has served as a model for other institutions across the country.
