Stanley and Rosemary Hayes Jones continue their legacy of philanthropy at George Mason University with a transformative $1 million gift to establish the Stanley and Rosemary Hayes Jones Networking Testbed Lab within the Fuse at Mason Square building.

More than 250 people are working on the construction of the Fuse building at Mason Square, including George Mason University rising senior Leslie Hernandez. “It’s my way of giving back to my school and community,” said Hernandez, who is majoring in civil and infrastructure engineering in the College of Engineering and Computing.

In this role, Shehu will lead the strategy and implementation of AI across research, academics, and partnerships for the university, maximizing opportunity and adoption in addressing the world’s grand challenges while leading on ethical considerations, governance, and risk mitigation.

Mason bioengineering majors hope that their capstone project will help individuals with prosthetic limbs live more comfortable lives.

Bioengineering undergraduates demonstrate how a virtual reality-based physical rehabilitation system can improve patient outcomes.

While useful technology, drones can pose a serious security risk. Systems engineering and operations research undergraduates Dyar Aziz and Markus Garretson are working to develop a methodology for inferring drone intent based on sensor data. 

Fuse at Mason Square will give student researchers like Soelem Aafnan Bhuiyan a dedicated space for globally impactful research.

Mason’s Institute of Digital Innovation (IDIA) recently welcomed the inaugural cohort of Public-Private Partnership (P3) Faculty Fellows. The Fellows Program aims to spark research collaborations between the university and industry partners on impactful societal problems and deliver state-of-the-art digital solutions to the local, regional, or national economy.
