Trimble Technology Lab Summit Set for CU Denver in 2026

June 13, 2026 - 03:50

The University of Colorado Denver will host the 2026 Trimble Technology Lab Summit, bringing together students, faculty, and industry professionals for a deep dive into the latest construction engineering and design tools. Year round, CU Denver students already have access to a full suite of Trimble equipment, software, and hardware in the dedicated lab space on campus. The upcoming summit aims to expand on that foundation.

Organizers say the event will feature hands-on workshops, demonstrations of emerging technologies, and discussions about how digital tools are reshaping the construction industry. Attendees can expect sessions on building information modeling, surveying technology, and project management software. The summit also provides a rare chance for students to network directly with engineers and executives from Trimble and partner firms.

CU Denver's Trimble Technology Lab opened several years ago as part of a broader push to give students real-world experience with professional-grade tools. The lab includes GPS systems, 3D scanners, total stations, and construction management platforms. Faculty members integrate these resources into coursework across multiple disciplines, from civil engineering to architecture.

The 2026 summit is expected to draw participants from across the region. Registration details and a full schedule will be announced closer to the event date. For now, university officials are focused on planning sessions that reflect the fast-changing demands of the construction workforce.
