CPS Student Wins IPOD in Gallup Survey

The first Gallup survey snapshot is complete and faculty and staff of the center will be dialoging with students about results.

As part of NSU’s Quality Enhancement Program (QEP), the Gallup survey was conducted in last fall as part of the “NSU is You” campaign, Jolene Steves of CPS won an IPOD and Belen Ramos, a senior psychology major in the Farquhar College of Arts and Sciences, won a free round trip ticket to anywhere in North America.

Q.E.P. stands for Quality Enhancement Plan. In an attempt to enhance the quality of education at Nova Southeastern University (NSU), the Quality Enhancement Plan has been developed and implemented as an initiative to enhance and increase academic student engagement university-wide. Although NSU has implemented a university Quality Enhancement Plan, each school, college, and center has developed a more specific Quality Enhancement Plan with detailed plans of action on how to increase student engagement within their academic programs.
The Quality Enhancement Plan is part of NSU’s essential priorities and ongoing initiatives to build the quality of its academic, service, and scholarship programs.

NSU is looking to enhance academic student engagement in three categories: (1) scholarship and research, (2) academic dialogue and exchange, and (3) clinical or practical experiences. The center’s plan, under the direction of Dr. Ana Fins will specifically focus on the third, enhancing preparation for practicum. Students from all programs will be invited to a summer institute at the end of May for targeted sessions that will help develop skills for practicum.

The next survey will be conducted in October.
