The University of Missouri is set to open an Industry 4.0 lab in fall 2024, funded by a one-year, $1 million grant from the Missouri Department of Higher Education and Workforce Development. The lab will provide hands-on activities to teach both the information and physical aspects of the field, such as cybersecurity, big data, cloud computing, blockchain, sensors, IoT, additive manufacturing, robotics, collaborative robots, autonomous material flow and digital twins. The lab will build upon what students learn in the College of Engineering’s two existing manufacturing labs.
