Where are classes held?

Villanova University’s picturesque 260-acre campus is located on the famed Main Line, just 12 miles west of Philadelphia. Our beautiful suburban campus is easily accessible by car and just a short ride on the R5 train from Philadelphia.

MTM classes take place at Bartley Hall, the Mendel Science Center, and the Center for Education and Engineering Research.

Bartley Hall, home of the Villanova School of Business, was renovated in 2002, adding 65,000 square feet and making it more user-friendly and technologically advanced.

The newly renovated Mendel Science Center offers the technical support needed in the MTM program. Facilities include intelligent systems and robotics, information visualization, biological simulation, and advanced application laboratories.

Opened in 1998, the Center for Engineering Education and Research, houses state-of-the-art instructional and research labs.

Together, these facilities provide advanced engineering and IT infrastructures, making them ideal environments for the MTM program.
