7 State of the Region: Southern Tier 2019 Progress Report 8 One recent success resulting from last year’s invest- ment was the April 22 groundbreaking of the SUNY Corning Community College STEAM Innovation Center, which will explore and expand public-private partner- ships with local employers to meet workforce needs. The STEAM Innovation Center will also be home to the Mechatronics Lab and Innovation Hub and will incor- porate academic programs including digital design and mechatronics, a multidisciplinary field combining electronics and mechanical engineering. To support the STEAM Innovation Center, SUNY CCC was awarded a $1 million CFA grant as part Round VIII of the Regional Economic Development Council awards in 2018. The funding will be used for site upgrades and to purchase and to install state-of-the-art equipment that will be used to prepare students with a rigorous education in new and emerging areas of technology, design, and science that supports industries such as advanced manufacturing.
