We are living longer than ever before. By 2034, people over age 65 will outnumber those under 18 for the first time in U.S. history. These demographic changes will have a profound impact on the future of education. As engines of research and innovation, higher education institutions are uniquely positioned to re-imagine education across the lifespan.
Edson Generations is a free, full-day, interactive campus experience designed for students in grades 7–12 to explore life as an Edson College student.
Participants will engage in simulation demonstrations with current nursing students, tour the Downtown Phoenix campus, learn about degree programs and career opportunities, and experience a cutting-edge virtual reality health care activity. Space is limited and reserved for the children of Edson College alumni at this time.
