USD as a Living Laboratory
Bringing together students, faculty, staff, and the San Diego community, USD acts as a Living Laboratory – a conceptual framework that provides a test-bed for implementing innovative initiatives and piloting programs in order to find solutions to world-wide challenges. Starting at the university level allows us to scale up effective solutions to our global community.
