Provost's Message

H. Wells Singleton, Ph.D.

Nova Southeastern University is the largest independent institution of higher education in Florida and the 10th largest independent institution in the United States . The Fischler School of Education and Human Services is one of the largest graduate schools of education in the western hemisphere, with more than 10,000 students in 50 cities and more than 20 U.S. states, as well as eight other countries.

We have worked hard in recent years to analyze existing and emerging needs for education, to organize our tremendous resources to meet those needs, and to move "ahead of the curve" in developing and delivering educational services anywhere in the world, any time they are required.

As we enter the new millennium, we remain committed to creating, customizing, and delivering quality educational services that incorporate applied solutions to community and workplace challenges, and that anticipate future needs.

We believe our doctoral fellowship program is among the most prestigious in the United States . We have positioned this program “ahead of the curve”. Fellows not only work with distinguished faculty and administrators, but side by side with executive deans and the provost on matters of strategic significance.
