Colorado State Breaks Ground on $15 Million Food Safety Innovation Center
Colorado State University (CSU) has begun constructing the new JBS Global Food Innovation Center. The $15 million state-of-the-art facility will focus on best practices in three distinct areas--food safety, meat sciences and animal handling and welfare.
The JBS facility will help to enhance CSU’s meat sciences program in terms of teaching and research. The building will also offer space for industry collaboration by way of continuing education opportunities, training, equipment development and testing, and more. Furthermore, CSU students will be able to learn about meat processing in a completely hands-on environment, a benefit that is not currently available at the institution.
