Civil Engineering Students Bring Clean Water to Zimbabwe Hospital
Reliable clean water is essential at Karanda Mission Hospital in Zimbabwe, where Cedarville University engineering students are designing a water treatment system for drinking water and sterile surgical use. Cedarville University students design clean water system for Zimbabwe hospital Matthew Shiel of New Hope, Pennsylvania, Lauren Kolodsick of Lake Orion, Michigan, and Caleb Weaver of Hudsonville, Michigan, are developing the system as part of their senior civil engineering design project. Karanda Mission Hospital needs reliable clean water for patients and surgeries Located in a rural region of Zimbabwe, Karanda Mission Hospital serves approximately 75,000 patients annually and performs nearly 4,000 surgeries, making reliable access to clean water essential for those who live on the hospital's compound and for patient care. The hospital sources its water from a nearby river, where an existing system treats the water using a multi-barrier method. But during Zimbabwe's rainy season, increased runoff kicks up sediment, filling the water with higher amounts of suspended sand and silt.

From Patient's Daughter to Nurse: Cedarville Student Returns to Mayo Clinic
As a child, Taylor DeYoung sat in Mayo Clinic hospital rooms watching nurses care for her mother during cancer treatment. This summer, she will return to the same hospital as a nursing intern, preparing to offer that same kind of care to other families. Taylor DeYoung Returns to Mayo Clinic as a Nursing Intern The internship is a full-circle step for DeYoung, whose calling to nursing was shaped not only by what she saw at the Mayo Clinic but by the compassion her family experienced during some of their hardest moments. How Her Mother's Cancer Treatment Shaped Her Calling to Nursing DeYoung's mother was diagnosed with aggressive stage three breast cancer in 2012. Soon after, she began receiving treatment at Mayo Clinic - one of the closest major breast cancer research centers to their Illinois home. "Because of the Mayo Clinic, my mom is alive today. There aren't many hospitals that could have done what they did for her," said DeYoung.

Engineering Students Use AI and Robotics To Transform Campus Tours
As artificial intelligence moves beyond screens and into physical spaces, an autonomous robot designed by Cedarville University engineering students could change the campus tour experience by guiding visitors, answering questions and navigating campus buildings in real time. Cedarville University engineering students create AI robot for campus tours The robot, the Campus Engagement and Directional Assistance Rover (CEDAR), was created to improve visitor experience on high-traffic visitation days by providing a consistent, accessible and interactive tour guide. Operating on the first floor of the university's Engineering and Science Center, CEDAR provides information about engineering programs, courses and campus events while helping fill gaps when human tour guides are unavailable.

Studying Abroad: Being Salt and Light One Trip at a Time
Imagine standing at the edge of the Korean Demilitarized Zone (DMZ), taking in the echoes of history that still ripple through the air. Or worshiping underground in a Roman catacomb, where early Christians once risked their lives for their faith. These powerful moments await Cedarville University students this summer as they embark on two new study abroad trips that promise to transform not just their understanding of the world, but their sense of purpose. Cedarville University's unique approach to its study abroad program makes it stand out from similar programs at other universities. In partnership with vetted and approved programs in Israel, Ireland, and Germany, Cedarville offers a diverse selection of immersive experiences, including faculty-guided trips with a carefully developed curriculum tailored for each destination.
