Nearly half of a million dollars in grants will fund undergraduate and graduate research to advance innovations from self-driving sensing technologies to sustainable low-carbon construction materials.

The new Anna Mosco and Marietta Borinski ’80 Simulation Laboratory boasts simulated and virtual reality technology enabling Widener nursing students to excel in clinical practice.

Faculty in the School of Business Administration found an opportunity with the Philadelphia Union to have students interacting directly with fans for hands-on research experience that has international potential.

Roll out the red carpet… it’s award season here at Widener and we’re taking a look back at 2023.

Over five weeks, students from Widener’s three campuses took advantage of an opportunity made possible through Widener’s partnership with the August-Wilhelm Scheer Institute in Germany for the first-ever internationally held Innovation Sprint.

Partnering with faculty advisors, more than 60 students participated in the annual Summer Undergraduate Research & Creative Activities (SURCA) program, applying what they’ve learned in the classroom to real-life, hands-on projects.
Student projects at Widener often push the boundaries of innovation, but one robotics engineering project rose above the rest to address a major problem in the drone industry.

Occupational therapy and robotics engineering students partnered together to produce 3D printed assistive devices as part of the Make:able Challenge, putting student-led collaboration and innovation on an international stage.
Nursing’s Center for Simulation continues to deliver high-quality simulated learning for undergraduate and graduate students with the latest technology innovations and updated facilities.
