EXPERIENCE THE DELVAL DIFFERENCE

FAC ILITIES Learn For more than 120 years, Delaware Valley University has provided students with a relevant, outstanding education.

Our academic programs will prepare you to meet tomorrow’s challenges today. Experience360, an integral component of every student’s curriculum, regardless of major, is central to a DelVal education. Through activities like career exploration, research, study aboard and civic engagement, you’ll gain real-world skills that integrate classroom learning, better preparing you for internships, graduate school and, ultimately, your career.

Playing on a team complements your academic work. The leadership, motivation and support you’ll gain through athletics goes hand in hand with your academic and personal development.

Robert A. Lipinski Field at James Work Memorial Stadium is a multi-sport artificial turf field featuring a three-lane recreational jogging track and lights for night games.

It hosts DelVal football, field hockey, men’s lacrosse, women’s lacrosse, men’s soccer and women’s soccer home contests.

James Work Gymnasium, which also houses the Rudley Neumann Gymnasium, is home to men’s basketball, women’s basketball, volleyball and wrestling contests as well as intramural events and the strength and conditioning room.

The hunt seat and dressage teams practice at our on-campus Equestrian Center, just a brief walk from residence halls. The Equestrian Center is home to 48 school horses, indoor and outdoor riding arenas, an outside field hunter course and areas to hack out. All tack is provided for riders.
