We're All About Students

Florida Atlantic University's spring commencement ceremony saw a record-breaking 3,600 degrees conferred, including more than 62 degrees awarded to students over 50, and 12 to students over 60. Among the graduates were six student-athletes from the FAU Men's Basketball team. Of the 3,600 graduates, 1,051 are first-generation students, and 120 graduated with a 4.0 GPA. These new graduates will join more than 207,000 Florida Atlantic Alumni who have graduated from Florida Atlantic since the University opened its doors in 1964. #Commencement #Graduation #College #FAU #FloridaAtlantic

Florida Atlantic’s Quality Enhancement Plan (QEP), Education Reimagined, will change the culture of teaching and learning at the institution by investing in and supporting student-centered education. Guided by the principles of the Learning Assistant (LA) program model, courses are redesigned by faculty to include active, collaborative learning experiences, facilitated by trained undergraduate Learning Assistants (LAs). https://www.fau.edu/qep/
