Welcome to JMU X-Labs!
JMU X-Labs is a vibrant hub for cross-disciplinary collaborative innovation. Here professors, students, and external partners unite to solve real-world problems that require different disciplines and perspectives. Everything in X-Labs starts with a problem to solve! Then we use design thinking - a hands-on process focused on understanding needs, brainstorming ideas, and testing solutions - to tackle challenges and find practical solutions. From developing new products to addressing real-world issues, JMU X-Labs empowers teams to create meaningful change.
As X-Labs celebrates its 10th anniversary of innovation in 2025, we honor the strong foundation that has brought us this far while boldly stepping into the future with X-Labs 2.0. A great way to learn about this exciting new chapter is by listening to this podcast, Experiential Learning: JMU X-Labs, as a fun and insightful introduction to all things X-Labs 2.0!
