About 1842 Day

1842 Day is Villanova's first-ever day of giving. This is our opportunity to show pride and gratitude for the impact Villanova has on each of us, in our communities and around the world. Alumni, students, parents, faculty, staff and friends—let's make a difference TOGETHER!

Our Goal

We need your help to reach 1,842 donors in 1,842 minutes, between 12 p.m. on Tuesday, September 19 and 6:42 p.m. on Wednesday, September 20 (EDT). Whether you give $5, $175 or $1,842, your generosity will count toward achieving our goal.

College of Engineering

At Villanova University’s College of Engineering, our vision is to be a leader in innovative engineering education. This vision has come to life through the Career Compass professional development program, our use of the inverted classroom model and more.

In addition, the College is ahead of many national trends, including student retention and graduation rates, the percentage of women enrolled in our engineering programs and the number of women on our faculty.

There’s even more we can do and will do with your help to keep Villanova Engineering on the leading edge. Your gift on 1842 Day will help us build new spaces, create innovative programs and attract and support talented faculty and students.

You can choose to support any of our five featured designations:

College of Engineering Fund

Dean’s Fund for Strategic Initiatives

CEER Renovation and Expansion

Engineering Service Learning

Undergraduate and Graduate Research Stipends

Your Impact

Your contributions will result in more dollars for our students and programs, strengthen our national reputation and bolster the unprecedented success of For the Greater Great®: The Villanova Campaign to Ignite Change.
