The VESTED program is modeled in such a way that students will gain maximum exposure to the exciting field of engineering. The curriculum includes lectures by industry and university professionals, article reviews and varying learning experiences based on each student’s year in the program. Returning students, associates (2nd year participants) and professionals (more than 2-year participants) will have the option to choose their curriculum track. While only returning students may take advantage of the curriculum tracks, all students will receive a foundation in the necessary skills to be successful in college and beyond. These skills include time management, working in teams, discovering your learning style and following detailed instructions, among others.
The VESTED Academy is held on the campus of Villanova University in the College of Engineering which allows students immediate access to engineering laboratories and state of the art technological equipment. The program is held eight Saturdays, January through April and will run from 9am to 2:30 pm. Lunch will be provided for all students and transportation will be available from designated pick-up locations within Philadelphia.
