Research and Teaching
The Center for Advanced Manufacturing Systems (CAMS) at Western New England University aims to obtain a leading position in exploration and training for advanced manufacturing systems, with a focus on automation, robotic welding technologies, and additive manufacturing.
Sponsored by Innovation Institute at the Mass Tech Collaborative, CAMS is dedicated to providing invaluable hands-on training opportunities for the next generation of skilled workers. A $1.1 million grant aims to strengthen statewide ecosystems by supporting projects that contribute to a competitive advantage for existing and emerging industry clusters. These efforts will improve conditions for job growth, business expansion and creation, development of new products, and increased investment in a region.
