The Center unites experts across the University of Wyoming campus to create technology innovations, develop transdisciplinary education, and streamline the commercialization process in CEA. It's the platform to engage various CEA stakeholders and collaborate with other institutional partners. Our vision is to accelerate food and nutrition security for diverse communities through controlled environment agriculture under the uncertainties of the continuously changing climate.
At the Center for Quantum Information Science and Engineering (C-QISE) at the University of Wyoming, our mission is to drive innovation, explore new frontiers in quantum science and technology, and prepare a highly skilled workforce equipped to meet the demands of the rapidly evolving quantum industry. We are dedicated to establishing C-QISE as a hub of cutting-edge research, collaborative innovation, and education to push the boundaries of quantum research and tackle real-world challenges.
The Center for Rural Resilience and Innovation (CRCRI) aspires to be an internationally recognized leader in use-inspired transdisciplinary and convergent research focused on supporting resilient and innovative rural communities and the ecosystems that sustain them throughout the West. Our goal is to work alongside Wyoming communities to better understand, plan for, and respond to diverse drivers of change so that they can thrive and innovate in the future.
Our vision is to leverage new technologies, big data, and computational advances to understand and conserve Wyoming's wildlife on working and changing landscapes. To achieve our vision, we build inclusive spaces supporting productive interdisciplinary collaborations that advance the frontiers of knowledge, provide management guidance for human-wildlife coexistence, and yield products useful to the state of Wyoming and beyond.
