    Medical Education ProgramFAU’s Charles E. Schmidt College of Medicine welcomed its inaugural class of 64 students in August 2011. The school’s innovative curriculum features early and continuous community-based clinical experiences and problem-based learning with emphasis on small-group and self-directed learning. A key component of the curriculum is early exposure to patients and the actual practice of medicine. To that end, the College has established relationships with several prominent area hospitals that are serving as sites for clerkships, hospital-based electives and residencies. FAU has also partnered with Scripps Florida to offer a dual M.D./Ph.D. degree, with the medical degree conferred by FAU and the doctorate conferred by The Scripps Research Institute’s Kellogg School of Science and Technology.

    Lifelong LearningThe Lifelong Learning Society (LLS) at FAU offers programs for students — primarily men and women of retirement age — on the Boca Raton and Jupiter campuses during fall, winter and spring terms. The Boca Raton LLS celebrated its 30th year in 2010, with approximately 12,700 students — representing close to 22,000 total enrollments. More than 7,000 students register annually for classes through the Jupiter LLS — now in its 15th year — representing more than 19,000 enrollments.

  • FAU serves students from kindergarten through the 12th grade at the following educational facilities. They are all affiliated with FAU’s College of Education and provide observation and internship opportunities for education majors.

    Research Pursuits and PartnershipsFAU brings in millions of dollars in research funding from state, federal and private sources including the National Science Foundation, the Office of Naval Research, the National Institutes of Health, the U.S. Department of Education, the U.S. Department of Energy and the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.

    The University is working on cooperative research and education projects with three of the world’s premier scientific research organizations: Scripps Florida, the Torrey Pines Institute for Molecular Studies and the Max Planck Florida Institute.

    The Southeast National Marine Renewable Energy Center at FAU joins national marine energy research centers in the Pacific Northwest and Hawaii that seek to advance the operational readiness of ocean energy technologies. The center is a partnership created to further the assessment of hydrokinetic and thermal ocean-energy resources off the east coast of Florida.

    FAU’s Harbor Branch Oceanographic Institute, in collaboration with the Charles E. Schmidt College of Science and the College of Engineering and Computer Science, is at the forefront of the discovery of medicines from deep-sea marine organisms — as well as related ocean exploration, conservation and education initiatives.

    The Research Park at Florida Atlantic University has locations on 77 acres on the Boca Raton campus and 14 acres in neighboring Deerfield Beach. The research park in Boca Raton also is home to the Technology Business Incubator, which currently houses 19 emerging technology companies across multiple industries.

    The University has an economic

    $6.3 billion annually.

    International ProgramsEach year hundreds of students participate in FAU-approvedstudy-abroad programs around the world. Students can studyoverseas for a semester, an academic year or shorter-term summer session or intersession period. Study abroad is open to all majors, and students earn academic credit toward their degrees.

    Popular destinations for FAU students include Ecuador, Italy,France, Greece, Japan and Spain.

    AthleticsFew experiences have more power to unite students than standing shoulder to shoulder at a game, cheering for a home team victory. FAU football fans were able to to do that for the first time in the new 30,000-seat stadium on the Boca Raton campus during the fall 2011 season. FAU’s 500 student-athletes participate in 18 NCAA Division I sports. In 2010, the baseball team won the Sun Belt Conference championship and the first FAU football player was drafted by an NFL team. FAU takes special pride in the fact that more than 200 of its student-athletes earned grade point averages of 3.0 or higher in 2010-11.
