About this organization
Mission
To challenge university STEM students to create innovative technology solutions that improve the quality of life for injured veterans, first responders and others who have served our nation. Vision: A community of universities partnered with QL+ and committed to improving the lives of veterans, first responders and their families. Geographic Scope: QL+ is currently partnered with the engineering departments at 19 universities in 10 states and the District of Columbia.
About
The organization has a process by which it identifies injured veterans and others; such as first responders, 'challengers,' who agree to be served by the organization's program. The challengers are linked to a team of engineering students at a college or university that has an agreement with the organization. The university provides a faculty advisor and the organization provides a program manager to support the team in the product development process, which is normally 9 months in duration. The thrust of our program is having senior design projects at the universities. There are 60 projects in the 2019-2020 academic year serving 283 engineering students at 12 universities. The organization has established some dedicated laboratory space at the following universities: Cal Poly, Colorado School of Mines, and University of Texas, San Antonio.
