Beyond its academic programs, the College of Aerospace, Computing, Engineering & Design (CACED) is home to two institutes that extend learning beyond the classroom by connecting academic knowledge with hands-on experiences and real-world applications. These institutes create opportunities for students, faculty and community partners to explore emerging ideas, develop practical skills and collaborate on challenges that shape our industries and communities.
Advanced Manufacturing Sciences Institute
The Advanced Manufacturing Sciences Institute at Metropolitan State University of Denver prepares students for careers in advanced manufacturing through hands-on learning, industry collaboration and exposure to emerging technologies. The institute offers the Advanced Manufacturing Sciences, B.S., a traditional four-year degree program with in-person classes that combines theoretical knowledge with practical experience using state-of-the-art equipment. This interdisciplinary degree equips students with the technical and professional skills needed to succeed in today’s evolving manufacturing industries, with four concentrations to choose from:
- Aerospace
- Industrial Design
- Mechanical Engineering Technology
- Operations Management
Rather than requiring a minor, the extended major allows students to focus their studies through a concentration aligned with their interests and career goals.
The Cybersecurity Center
The Cybersecurity Center at Metropolitan State University of Denver prepares students and adult learners for cybersecurity careers through hands-on training, industry-recognized certifications and real-world applications. Through immersive learning environments and connections to experienced professionals, the center helps learners develop practical skills to navigate today’s evolving cybersecurity landscape. The Cybersecurity Center offers:
