SETON HALL INVENTORS USE CREATIVITY TO SOLVE THORNY PROBLEMS.

Less than five miles from the University’s Farinella Gate on South Orange Avenue, one of the country’s most influential inventors, Thomas Edison, made his home. At Edison’s West Orange lab — one of the first dedicated to research and development — the father of the light bulb, the phonograph and the motion picture conducted experiments resulting in more than 1,000 patents. Many years later, Seton Hall graduates have channeled that same creative, solution-driven energy into life- changing inventions of their own. We share a few of their stories here.
