Innovation Lab

Shaping Purpose into Possibility.

In an era marked by rapid technological advancements and creative disruptions, Marymount University stands at a pivotal moment. Our students—future fashion designers, engineers, marketers, architects, and communication professionals—are preparing to enter industries that increasingly demand not just theoretical knowledge, but the ability to prototype, iterate, and bring bold ideas to life. 

The Innovation Lab will serve as Marymount's creative engine, supporting diverse programs including: 

  • Mechanical Engineering – prototyping functional designs, robotics development, and product testing 

  • Fashion Design – creating innovative textiles, sustainable fashion prototypes, and wearable technology 

  • Fashion Merchandising & Marketing – developing pop-up retail experiences and immersive brand presentations 

  • Communications – producing multimedia content with professional-grade equipment 

  • Graphic Design – transforming digital concepts into physical products 

  • Interior Architecture & Design – visualizing spaces through VR and creating scaled architectural models 

“Being creative isn’t enough today; students must also understand business, technology, and problem-solving. At Marymount, we combine these disciplines in ways that prepare students to thrive in a contemporary, ever-changing world.”

— Salvatore Pirrone, Associate Professor of Interior Architecture and Design
