The Semcer Center for Healthcare Innovation is a university-wide research center to augment Stevens' impact on healthcare.
In this fast-changing era where life expectancy is ever-increasing, and the individual and societal burden of medical care is tremendously escalated, an innovative and translational approach to healthcare is needed.
We seek routes of collaboration among our faculty, clinicians and industry partners by encouraging communication and networking. Our efforts also aim to foster students’ success in education, as well as expand opportunities for their career paths in healthcare-related industry, academia and government.

Constructed as part of the university's newest state-of-the-art research and teaching facility, the Gateway Academic Center, the Semcer Lab modernizes and expands available lab and research space on campus by more than 3,000 square feet.
This multidisciplinary tissue engineering lab was established thanks to a generous gift from alumnus Frank J. Semcer, Sr. '65 and his wife, Mary Jane Semcer.
Semcer, Sr. is chairman and CEO of MICRO, an international contract manufacturer of medical devices and other precision equipment for the healthcare, automotive, aerospace and electronics industries. He is also a member of the Stevens Board of Trustees.
