Digital IHub to open in Palm Desert

A digital IHub across the street from Cal State San Bernardino’s Palm Desert campus is scheduled to hold its grand opening Wednesday.

The Palm Desert IHub, a collaboration of Cal State San Bernardino, the Coachella Valley Economic Partnership and Palm Desert, is expected to boost the Coachella Valley’s economy, according to a statement on the university’s website.

It will feature programs in cybersecurity, hospitality management and entrepreneurship. University officials hope the IHUB increases diversity among enrolled students while allowing more members of underrepresented communities to study those disciplines.

“The addition of these three state-of-the-art programs will greatly enhance our Palm Desert campus and give our students much-needed experience and opportunities that will help them after graduation as they start their careers,” said Cal State San Bernardino President Tomás D. Morales in the statement.

“This is part of our partnership with the city of Palm Desert and the Coachella Valley Economic Partnership that we believe will serve as an economic boost to the region.”
