Technogenesis in Action
Technogenesis is the educational frontier, pioneered by Stevens, where faculty, students and industry jointly nurture research concepts to commercialization and back to the classroom. It is more than technology transfer, it is part of the Stevens educational experience and creates a climate of innovation and enterprise across the campus.
Stevens has a long tradition of enterprise and innovation, starting with Stevens' founding family. One example is Colonel John Stevens III, who launched the first U.S. patent office. During his life, the steam engine was created. However, it could not sustain a long journey. So Colonel John developed an improved engine that could, and to protect it he started the U.S. Patent Office. He later developed the world's first steam engine-powered ferry to transport New Yorkers to his resorts in Hoboken.
This tradition of innovation and enterprise continues at Stevens today, and can be seen from inventions not only by our faculty but our students, as well, through Technogenesis.
