The grand opening for NetApp’s new 168,000-square-foot facility took place June 15 at Wichita State’s Innovation campus. The facility will support WSU’s nationally recognized research programs such as the National Institute for Research and Digital Transformation and the National Institute for Aviation Research. The facility also features an on-site large-scale data center and an Artificial Intelligence SuperPOD/HPC Center of Excellence.
The locations will allow NetApp to partner directly with WSU on any future curriculum applying to NetApp’s core technology and provide WSU students with the opportunity for hands-on training and valuable lab experience before graduation.
