It is my pleasure to welcome you to Florida Atlantic University on the World Wide Web. This is an exciting period for FAU as growth and development take place on many fronts, greatly increasing the educational opportunities available to students.
FAU is a public university that currently serves 26,000 undergraduate and graduate students on seven campuses in South Florida. Since opening its doors in 1964, the university has awarded degrees to more than 100,000 alumni, and I am very proud to count myself among them. Like today's students, I found FAU's faculty second to none in excellence of classroom teaching and mentorship of students. This truly outstanding community of scholars makes the university experience come alive for students, broadening their horizons in a multitude of ways.
Though less than 50 years old, FAU is already claiming a place among America's most productive research universities. Discoveries are being made today in FAU laboratories that will add to the arsenal of diagnostic and treatment tools used in the battle against cancer, heart disease, Alzheimer's disease and a host of other deadly illnesses.
It is my great privilege to lead the university during this period of transformative growth and progress. I cordially invite you to explore this Web site to find out more about all FAU has to offer you.
Frank T. Brogan '81 President
