Nova Southeastern University is a comprehensive private R1 research university in Fort Lauderdale–Davie with a strong professional focus and a multi‑campus footprint. Industry partners can access shared core facilities, wet/dry labs, and leasable space in the 215,000‑sq‑ft Center for Collaborative Research, enabling co‑located projects and streamlined compliance. An oceanographic campus at the entrance to Port Everglades provides direct field access and specialized facilities, while NSU Health and the adjacent HCA Florida University Hospital support clinical research and translation.
