The Center of Excellence in Enterprise Technology is strategically dedicated to exploring large-scale solutions to address technological challenges in corporate, scientific and educational arenas.

 

¸ÌéÙÖ±²¥â€™s Center of Excellence in Enterprise Technology (CEET) brings together students, academic experts and industry collaborators to explore the current boundaries of interoperability and systems synergy as well as develop relevant solutions to address modern computing challenges. By facilitating conversations between students, faculty and external research partners, CEET is positioned with the knowledge, proof points and skills needed to enhance our relationship with technology.  

THE CENTER'S IMPACT

¸ÌéÙÖ±²¥â€™s CAVE Automatic Virtual Environment (CAVE) is an immersive, interactive experience with 3D virtual reality worlds, 3D big-data displays and 3D models of real-world locations and objects, bringing course material to life in new and exciting ways. Funded by a $1.67 million National Science Foundation grant and managed by CEET, the CAVE opened in October 2014 and is located Falvey Memorial Hall. In addition to serving as a teaching and learning space, it is used to support faculty research projects across disciplines, as well as to collaborate with academic and industry researchers from around the world. 

At the Center of Excellence in Enterprise Technology (CEET), we believe discovery starts when we explore immersive technologies and leverage that knowledge to solve challenges here at ¸ÌéÙÖ±²¥, in our communities and on an enterprise-level around the world. Learn about some of our ongoing research projects.

The Center is not only a hub for student research but also for community education. Learn about opportunities for current ¸ÌéÙÖ±²¥ students as well as the CAVE Youth Program, inviting local k – 12 groups to visit the CAVE.

NEWS AND EVENTS

Students and faculty designed a virtual tour of the Redemptoris Mater Chapel in the Vatican on behalf of the Department of Telecommunications of the Governorate of Vatican City State and the Vatican’s Dicastery for Communication, with permission from the Papal Household. Now, for the very first time, anyone can view the sacred, rarely-seen space online.

Faculty across disciplines and colleges use the CAVE to bring class material to life, such as Noël Falco Dolan, EdD, who brought her Augustine and Culture Seminar class into a Harlem Renaissance-era blues club to study Langston Hughes poetry.

AUGMENTED REALITY SANDBOX
