Establish JMU as a Living Lab

JMU will turn its campus and community partnerships into a living laboratory for learning, research and innovation. A university-wide framework will connect students, professors, staff and external partners around real-world challenges, bringing coursework, applied research and campus operations together. By coordinating and expanding work already underway, JMU can generate practical solutions while giving students more opportunities to learn by doing.
