What is Makerspace?

Makerspace provides opportunities for students, faculty and staff to interact with digital fabrication and traditional crafting tools for design, creating and prototyping, as well as working with emerging technologies. Priority is given to teaching, course assignments and research activities. Other creative projects are also welcome. Training and assistance is available for the design and creation of 3D models, web sites, graphics and media productions.
