About

The ONEIL Center was founded in 2017 and made possible by a generous gift from O’Neil & Associates, a company located in Miamisburg, Ohio that provides world-class product support services to the aerospace, defense, and commercial industries.

Located at Wright State University, the ONEIL Center provides a comprehensive suite of services to support business and marketing enterprises. We employ an innovative experiential learning approach to train students from multiple disciplines in the art of communicating and training for subjects surrounding business and marketing. Our student interns participate in business operations and receive practical experience working with the center’s clients to produce proposals, technical documents, graphics, videos, posters, and web tools.

Impact

The ONEIL Center serves diverse industries and sectors, including commercial, defense, academic, medical, government, and non-profit organizations, by helping them communicate their technical work to diverse audiences.

The center also benefits research faculty and graduate students by providing editing services for theses, dissertations, conference papers, and journal articles. The center unburdens faculty by allowing them to focus on the scholarly merit of the technical content without having to spend their valuable time editing their graduate students’ manuscripts. Furthermore, they can be confident in the quality of their students’ work, given our university-based center’s commitment to editorial ethics and to preserving the academic integrity of our clients’ manuscripts.

By referring my students to the ONEIL Center, I anticipate increasing my own research productivity through spending less time reviewing their work. Furthermore, I appreciate that the ONEIL Center’s affiliation with Wright State university means that I can be confident in the academic integrity of my students’ materials.
