With the development of the Von Braun Center for Science & Innovation, Huntsville has a new capability to integrate R & T assets and to address the current mission requirements of its key federal stakeholders, and provide the flexibility to respond to future requirements. The center will also serve as a critical hands-on learning laboratory for training, educating, and preparing a strong workforce for tomorrow.

VCSI's vision is to become a self-sustaining, world-class R&D center that blends local resources with national assets to provide science and technology innovations and solutions to meet critical NASA and DoD mission requirements.
