Welcome to E-Learning for Fall 2022!



The Graduate Engineering Fall 2022 semester begins today!



All classes taking place on campus or remotely, are hosted live on ZOOM to provide real-time interactivity with the instructor and discussions. Each lecture is also recorded and archived on Blackboard, so if you are unable to attend live, they are available to view On-Demand any time throughout the semester.

Your portal to class content will be Villanova's Blackboard system.

  • If you are experiencing technical problems during live class, or while attempting to view an archived class recording - please reach out to our staff at egrdlsupport@villanova.edu for immediate assistance.



Note: The highest speed internet access you have available would be the best practice when connecting to a live class session. To test your signal strength on either a WiFi or Wired connection, please visit www.speedtest.net.  Speeds less than 8 mbps may indicate a problem with your service, please contact your internet provider to address this. Additionally, computers with hardware that is more than three years old might experience some difficulty easily processing our content.


 If you do NOT see "Launch LTI" after clicking on the VU ZOOM tab, you may need to refresh or switch your browser.
** While the meeting ID's will remain the same each week, you will see individual links for each class session. The current meeting will always sort to the top. Depending on your instructor, there may be another meeting available for "Office Hours", if so please choose the instance labeled "Class".
