College of Business Establishes New Fellowship with USchool

The NSU H. Wayne Huizenga College of Business and Entrepreneurship and NSU University School are set to launch a new partnership in the form of a fellowship this spring. Twelve high-achieving Upper School students from USchool have been selected from more than 60 applications for this highly anticipated program. “USchool has been building specialized fellowship programs since 2017 with different colleges at NSU, starting with the Dr. Kiran Patel College of Osteopathic Medicine and then adding the Shepard Broad College of Law in 2018. We are so proud to be adding this third partnership with the College of Business to our program offerings,” said Samantha Nelson, Director of Experiential Learning at USchool.

The Business Fellowship will begin at the start of 2022 and run from January until May. The fellows will be welcomed during a pinning ceremony with an official Huizenga College pin. Throughout the fellowship, students will be able to experience the different industries and career opportunities in the subjects of accounting, finance, management, marketing, entrepreneurship, real estate, and sports management. They will meet with expert faculty and have VIP invitations to many of the college activities and events with administration. Each week, the fellows will experience different college settings around the university such as the DeSantis building, Mako Hall Shark Cage, and the NSU-Broward Innovation Center. The fellows will also get to work with Huizenga Academy students as well as career services.

To conclude the fellowship journey, the USchool students will present their career path projects at a final Shark Showcase and celebration! This new era of innovation is the perfect time for this partnership. The goal is to prepare these passionate and curious students for college and beyond. The Dean, faculty, administration, staff, and students at the business college are looking forward to giving the USchool fellows a taste of the real business college experience. Go Sharks!
