Case Study: Quinnipiac University modernizes hybrid learning and boosts career readiness with Zoom Video Communications

Quinnipiac University Gets Creative in Preparing Students for Careers in the 21st Century

Quinnipiac University, a higher‑education institution in Hamden, Connecticut, faced the sudden need to shift to online and hybrid learning during the COVID‑19 pandemic. Because the school had already been using Zoom, faculty and staff quickly adapted by building mobile “Zoom Rooms on wheels” to convert every classroom into a hybrid-ready space and keep students engaged whether remote or in person.

By leveraging Zoom’s unified communications—Zoom Rooms, Zoom Phone, Zoom Chat and Zoom Video Webinars—Quinnipiac streamlined teaching, campus telephony and large‑event delivery. The solution met unique needs (including for the university’s polling institute), became ingrained in daily operations, improved student engagement, and supported the school’s mission to prepare students for 21st‑century careers.
