machine systems, and work in the rapidly
growing IoT field. Graduates will be
able to calibrate and control automated
machine cells, assist in applied research
under the direction of scientists and
engineers, and set up and operate
specialized diagnostic equipment in
order to test, trouble shoot and analyze
performance. ERICKSON, BELL, BECKMAN

The ADM program is housed in the new
$1.2 million Digital Engineering and FAB
LAB constructed on the East campus of
Century College. The Fab Lab serves as
a critical component enabling students
to evolve their digital knowledge and
skills utilizing a “project based” approach
linking theory and practice. Students
utilize a “hands-on, minds-on” approach
to applying technology and engineering
methods and design; they solve real
industry challenges using a host of state-
of-the-art digital based machines and
systems.
In 2007, Century was the first college
in the region to install and implement
a Digital Fab Lab and incorporate the
Massachusetts Institute of Technology
(MIT) based FAB LAB initiative across
its curriculum in science, technology,
engineering and math (STEM) areas. The
Century College ADM program was the
result of over ten years collaboration with
the MIT Center for Bits and Atoms and
the Global Fab Lab Network. Century
College ADM faculty are heavily involved
with the Global Fab Lab initiative.
Currently, there are over 2,500 Fab
Labs installed around the world – with
approximately 250 labs located in the
United States.
