Discovery and Innovation


Enable engineering faculty to research solutions to society’s grand challenges.


Santa Clara’s School of Engineering nurtures and supports an environment for discovery and innovation by providing students with opportunities to work with faculty researchers and industry-leading partners. Working in a collaborative space fosters a culture of innovation and engineering excellence at SCU.

Faculty research, such as wearable technology that helps improve the lives of patients with musculoskeletal disorders or the development of a virtual reality training program for Alzheimer’s and dementia caregivers, enhances the education and experience both in and out of the classroom.

Your gift to the Faculty Discovery and Innovation Fund helps uncover solutions to the world’s pressing concerns! Go All In today.
