Delaware State University - Training Lab
In 2015, InterDigital announced a partnership grant to Delaware State University, a historically Black college and university (HBCU), to support the next generation of engineers, scientists, and innovators. Leveraging funds from our $300,000 grant to the College of Mathematics, Natural Sciences and Technology, Delaware State University has established a cutting-edge wireless communications training lab. To date, the facility has trained more than 300 undergraduate and graduate engineering and computer science students and provided vital infrastructure for teaching professors and faculty. What began as a grant to equip young people with resources to become engineers and business leaders has produced a valuable training lab serving the Black and Brown innovators and leaders of tomorrow.
