NSU Names New Dean of the Huizenga College of Business and Entrepreneurship

Andrew Rosman, Ph.D.

Nova Southeastern University (NSU) is pleased to announce the appointment of Andrew Rosman, Ph.D. as the dean of the H. Wayne Huizenga College of Business and Entrepreneurship.

“Dean Rosman brings extensive experience to NSU and has a proven track record of success,” said Dr. George Hanbury, President and CEO of Nova Southeastern University. “We look forward to his leadership as he takes the helm of the College of Business.”

In this position, Dr. Rosman will be responsible for developing and enhancing the college’s strategic initiatives, long-term planning and policy setting. He will also lead the faculty and staff in curriculum development, institutional assessment and improvement and will cultivate relationships with alumni and donors.

Dr. Rosman most recently served as dean and professor in the Silberman College of Business at Fairleigh Dickinson University, overseeing programs at its two New Jersey campuses (Metro and Florham) and the Vancouver, British Columbia campus. He led the development of new academic minors targeted to non-business majors and new online graduate degrees. In addition, Dr. Rosman worked with faculty to create minors addressing specific industry needs and business courses tailored for the arts.

He has been actively involved in fundraising, helping secure more than $3.5 million. Rosman’s outreach efforts have included actively engaging the College’s alumni, forming a “Next Gen” Board of Advisors, and creating signature fundraising events such the anniversary of the naming of the College and its successor event, a Hall of Fame dinner.

Prior to joining FDU in 2014, Dean Rosman was the Dean of the College of Management at LIU Post (2012-2104) and a faculty member at the University of Connecticut (1989-2012). While at UConn, he was the founding director of the MS in Accounting Program and served as director from 1998 to 2012. In 2002, this program became the University of Connecticut’s first asynchronous online graduate degree.

Dean Rosman’s primary research focus has been on how decision makers use information with the objective of identifying ways to improve decision behavior. He has published research in the Journal of Accounting and Economics; Journal of Accounting, Auditing and Finance; Auditing: A Journal of Theory and Practice; Academy of Management Journal; Journal of Behavioral Decision Making; Journal of Business Venturing; Journal of Business Research; Issues in Accounting Education; Behavioral Research in Accounting; Review of Accounting and Finance; and Research in Accounting Regulation.

“I am honored to have been selected to serve as the next dean for NSU’s College of Business,” Dr. Rosman said. “I look forward to helping the college provide students with a competitive edge as we continue to develop new impactful programs focused on providing competitive career advantages to our students. Mr. Huizenga left an amazing legacy both in the business world and in the world of higher education at NSU – my goal is to live up to that legacy by helping today’s students become tomorrow leaders.”

The United States Distance Learning Association (USDLA) has recognized Dr. Rosman for developing best practices in online education (2007) and for excellence in distance learning teaching (2011) and he was awarded UConn’s highest teaching distinction, University Fellow, in 2001. He earned his BBA from Hofstra University and his Ph.D. from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.

 

 

 

 

Men’s Soccer Team Shut-Out Tampa for First SSC Win

The NSU men’s soccer team battled to defeat the Tampa Spartans, 2-0, on Saturday evening, earning its their first Sunshine State Conference victory of the season in the process.

INSIDE THE MATCHUP:
Score: Nova Southeastern 2, Tampa 0
Records: Nova Southeastern (4-4-3, 1-3-1 SSC), Tampa (4-5-1, 2-3-1 SSC)
Location: Pepin Stadium | Tampa, Fla.
Get Social: Twitter – @NSU_MSoccer | Instagram – @nsu_msoccer | Facebook – /NSUSharksMensSoccer

HOW IT HAPPENED:

  • There was very little in the way of action for much of the first half, with the Sharks responsible for all five shots in the period. The only attempt for the first 20 minutes was blocked off the leg of Aleks Berg.
  • The Sharks had two more in a span of 34 seconds in the 22nd minute, but the first was also blocked and the second saved.
  • The Spartans finally had their first opportunity in the 50th minute, but the Sharks defense was able to knock it away.
  • The Sharks had four of five attempts over the next 10 minutes, forcing keeper Jake Richards to make three more saves, before Matty Cornish, aided by Berg, was finally able to get one by just before the 60-minute mark.
  • A flurry of shots followed, including four of the Spartans’ seven for the game. They hit the post in the 64th minute, while their ensuing rebound try sailed over the net.
  • Henrik Berg collected a Jan Luca Ahillen corner kick a minute later and tapped the ball in from the left side to double the Sharks’ lead.
  • The final 20 minutes of action saw just four more shots, with two of the three attempts by the Sharks saved by Richards. The Spartans’ final try, meanwhile, came with less than two minutes remaining and the game all but over.

Coming Soon: Bitlocker To Go Encryption For NSU Owned Windows Desktops and Laptops

The Office of Innovation and Information Technology will be enabling BitLocker To Go encryption for external hard drives and USB flash drives used with NSU owned Windows Desktops and Laptops on October 21, 2019.

How does BitLocker work? Bitlocker To Go is a Microsoft Windows feature that allows you to password protect and encrypt your portable device including external hard drives and USB flash drives when an attempt is made to connect to an NSU owned Windows Desktop or Laptop.

How will it benefit  you and NSU? Encrypting removable media means that if it is lost or stolen, NSU’s data will not be compromised and demonstrates due diligence. We have taken the direction of using this technology across all NSU Windows devices in order to prevent the exfiltration of all sensitive data.

To learn more about BitLocker To Go visit our Bitlocker FAQ website located at https://www.nova.edu/oiit/bitlocker/
