Women’s flag football is fast, strategic and creating exciting new opportunities for athletes across the country. 🏈

At Westcliff University, student-athletes compete in the NAIA’s 7-on-7 format while helping founding head coach Frank Phung build the identity, traditions and standards of a growing Warrior program.

Professor Jesus Lucio does more than teach technology. He helps students see what is possible for their careers. 💻

After 25 years in the tech industry, he knows that landing a first opportunity can require more than submitting another application. It takes strategy, confidence and a willingness to consider a different path.

That guidance helped one cybersecurity student turn repeated rejections into a startup job before graduation. It is also one reason students named Lucio Westcliff’s 2026 Faculty of the Year for the College of Technology and Engineering.

His goal is simple: make sure every student leaves his classroom with something they can use wherever they go next.

Learning to care for a community begins by serving it. 🩺

Westcliff College of Nursing ELM students recently gained valuable hands-on experience while helping provide immunizations and physical assessments, with a special focus on pediatric patients.

Throughout the event, students participated in patient check-in, observed physician assessments and supported the immunization process. Each step gave them a closer look at how compassionate, coordinated care is delivered in a community setting.

Thank you to the San Bernardino School District for collaborating with us to create this meaningful learning opportunity and help support the health of local families.

Behind every student milestone is often someone who took the time to listen, answer the difficult questions and help make the next step feel possible.

For many of Westcliff’s international students, Derek Liew is that person.

As a supervisor in International Student Success Advising, Derek supports students through some of the most important moments in their academic and professional journeys. He also works closely with colleagues across the university, sharing knowledge, solving problems and making sure students receive the guidance they need.

That dedication recently earned Derek one of Westcliff’s highest employee honors: 2026 Staff of the Year, an award chosen by his colleagues.

Derek’s approach is captured in a belief he carries into every interaction: “You don’t grow solo. As you grow, other people grow with you.”

Congratulations, Derek, and thank you for helping our students and community thrive.

Westcliff University Canada student Kavin Mohan recently turned an ambitious idea into an award-winning cybersecurity solution.

Kavin and his team earned second place and a $2,500 prize at the Brampton SecOps Hackathon 2026 for TruckerTrust, a rotating, single-use pickup pass designed to help prevent fraudulent cargo pickups at logistics facilities.

Over three fast-paced days, the team developed a working prototype and presented it through a live demonstration. Kavin contributed much of the frontend user interface and Express backend, helping bring the solution from concept to reality.

His achievement reflects the technical skill, teamwork and practical problem-solving cultivated through Westcliff Canada’s Master of Information Systems and Technology program, and the caliber of students ready to tackle real-world technology challenges.

Congratulations to Kavin and his teammates on this outstanding accomplishment!

16 teams. One Warrior community.

Westcliff student-athletes kicked off the fall season with an afternoon full of championship celebrations, team spirit, plenty of laughs and a lip-sync competition that brought out a very different kind of performance from our Warriors.

We celebrated the national champion surf and cheer teams, cheered on athletes from across every program and challenged the entire Westcliff community to carry that same energy into the stands all season long.

The games have begun, the goals are set and our Warriors are ready to make their presence known. Let’s make this a season to remember!

A new academic year begins with new goals, new connections and fresh momentum.

Westcliff Miami’s first Professional Weekend of the 2026–27 school year brought our Fall 1 students and faculty together for a meaningful weekend of learning, collaboration and community.

Professional Weekends give students the opportunity to take their learning beyond the classroom, connect face to face with professors and peers and build relationships that can support them throughout their academic and professional journeys.

Thank you to everyone who helped us begin the year on such a strong note. We are excited to see what our Miami students accomplish in the months ahead!
