Since Florida Atlantic University was first designated in 1989 as the lead state university serving Broward County, FAU's Broward campuses have grown dramatically in both size and population.
Dania Beach's SeaTech site is an ocean engineering research center for University partnerships with industry and government that focus on physical oceanography, ocean energy, marine technology and other areas.
The Davie campus is also the University's headquarters for expanding environmental research initiatives focused on Everglades restoration.
FAU's Fort Lauderdale campus has evolved into a unique center for design programs, such as architecture, graphic design, multimedia studies, urban design, and urban and regional planning.
Florida Atlantic University is a strong partner with industries and organizations serving Broward and Miami-Dade counties.
FAU Broward campuses faculty, staff and students are committed to engaging local business, government and nonprofits groups.
Join us as we continue to evolve in service to South Florida.

To the FAU Community,
I wanted to make you aware of recent changes at the Broward campuses. The academic programs that have been located in Fort Lauderdale all continue to serve students and are poised for growth, though some have changed location:

The Second Avenue Studio at 220 SE 2ndAvenue is the new site for the School of Architecture’s MetroLAB. In addition to functioning as an academic space it will remain an exhibition space and site for community engagement programs.
The College of Business Executive Masters in Accounting programs remain in Fort Lauderdale and have been relocated to the Higher Education Complex. The administrative office is HE 1008F.
The Dorothy F. Schmidt College of Arts and Letters Graphic Design program has moved to the third floor of the Liberal Arts (LA) building in Davie.

In addition, the main office of the Associate Provost for the Broward Campuses is in the Liberal Arts (LA) building at Davie, Suite 212. The telephone number is x61280. The downtown satellite campus administration office is located in HE 1007.
Three units with community outreach missions remain in Fort Lauderdale at the Higher Education Complex: the Small Business Development Center in HE 1009 H; the Florida Public Archaeology Network HE 1008 D; and Upward Bound in HE 1008 P.
The Askew Tower and Higher Education buildings at Fort Lauderdale are now managed by Broward College. All requests for use of meeting or event space at both FAU Fort Lauderdale and Broward College should be directed to Jane Morgan, x61282; or Charlotte Walker, x61280.
