C3 Innovation
Curiosity, Creativity, and Community.
Innovation is the heart of what drives us at UCCS – where we strive to think outside of the box each and every day.
No matter the program, area of academic focus, or the exciting decision to pursue new collaborations – we are innovative in our approach and our efforts to succeed, create, and transform.
And that’s why C3 Innovation was formed.
C3 Innovation stands for Curiosity, Creativity, and Community.
These elements are essential to solving problems and making an impact through innovative solutions.
C3 Innovation is a hub of multidisciplinary collaboration that connects students, faculty, and the community to push the boundaries of research and discovery. Located at the Kraemer Family Library in the heart of the UCCS campus, we empower participants to solve real-world challenges and drive growth in sectors like AI/cybersecurity, space, healthcare, the arts, and beyond.
Anything is possible with hands-on projects and collaborations.
